Torres Wants To Be Liverpool Lifer
Torres, who has been a revelation since his record-breaking switch from Atletico Madrid last summer, says he already feels Red to the core.
"I hope so," said Torres when asked if he hopes to spend his entire career at Liverpool.
"I feel very confident here. If we can win trophies, then much better. This is my team, my city and Anfield is my pitch. I feel very good."
Torres' magnificent start to his Liverpool has earned him comparisons to former Reds striking greats such as Ian Rush and Robbie Fowler, but the 24-year-old insisted it is still much too early to rank him amongst the club's legends.
"I'm very proud. But now is not the moment," added the striker, who has scored a staggering 30 goals in 42 appearances for his new club.
"Kenny, Robbie and Stevie (Gerrard) have a lot of trophies, a lot of titles and they have played hundreds of games for the club. They have been legends for lots of years.
"This is only my first season at Liverpool and I want to play better for many more seasons yet. So far I've had one good season but Kenny and Robbie have had six, seven, eight or 10 good seasons at Liverpool. It's different.
"When I have finished my career then maybe that will be the moment to talk about these things but not now. It's too early.
"It's important to me that the fans think highly of me and if they're saying these things then I would say 'thank you, but not yet'.
"I think they love me and I love them. It's great when kids and their granddads come up to me in the street and say 'you're the best'.
"I was with Kenny Dalglish the other day and you could see in the faces of the people how much of a hero he is, 20 years after he finished his career. I want everyone to remember me in 20 years' time
