Rush backs Torres

By Al Campbell
Wednesday, 4th July 2007
Ian Rush has backed Fernando Torres to be a big success at Anfield.
The Liverpool goalscoring legend says the Reds' latest recruit will be the man to fire them to success.

"Liverpool are looking to get a genuine goalscorer," Rush told Sky Sports News.

"Between them people like [Peter] Crouch, [Craig] Bellamy and [Robbie] Fowler have done well, but I think to compete for the league you're looking for someone to get maybe 20-25 goals a season and Torres looks to be that.

"He's got the ability and capability to [score 20-25 goals a season]. He can kick with both feet, I think it's always a great asset for striker.

"Liverpool don't need players to come in and learn the ropes, they need players to come straight into the side and Torres fits that.

"What they need now is those other two players - if they get them - to come staight into the side."
