Torres Admits Preference To Liverpool

Fernando Torres has admitted he is finding it hard to settle in London and preferred life in Liverpool.

The £50million January acquisition has struggled to live up to his inflated price tag scoring just five in 30 games for Chelsea. Despite showing glimpse’s of the form that saw The Blues part with a record fee, the striker admits he has struggled to adapt to life in London, something he didn’t encounter when first arriving on Merseyside.

“Chelsea is in London, a huge city. I come from Madrid, also a great European capital, but this is much more of everything, for good and for bad,’ said Torres.

“It’s been difficult for me to adapt here compared to when I arrived in Liverpool, a more comfortable place, smaller, where I was surrounded by Spanish team-mates.”
