Torres scores with such composure and elegance, which doesn’t exactly fit his nickname “el nino”- i guess all that matters is that he leaves the defense in ruins.
He’s certainly been wonderful for Liverpool this season.
If he can keep himself injury free, he’ll probably end up as the top scorer in the league this season.
