* Torres fails to shine against former club
* Fourth successive win for Liverpool
* Chelsea still 10 points behind the leaders (writes through)
By Mitch PhillipsThe Spanish striker was mercilessly jeered by his former fans whose joy was completed by a 69th-minute strike from Raul Meireles which dashed Chelsea’s hopes of closing the gap on Premier League leaders Manchester United.
Torres, who joined Chelsea last week in a British record deal, had two early chances but faded before being substituted after 66 minutes to the delight of the travelling supporters.
“He did a good job,” Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti said of his 50 million-pound ($80.54 million) striker. “Liverpool defended very well with three centre backs and we didn’t have the right solution to attack.
“Torres was very enthusiastic, very confident and excited but he’s had a very busy week so it was right to take him off.”
Liverpool defended superbly throughout to record their fourth successive victory and clean sheet under new manager Kenny Dalglis.i took this article from yahoo!sports. i watched the match earlier this morning and it was awkward that torres wore a blue instead of a red jersey. dissapointed that torres left Liverpool for Chelsea but,Liverpool whatever~ Liverpool won the match! yay! GOOD JOB LIVERPOOL!!!
