Fernando Torres striker believes the new regime at Liverpool will revive fortunes, but admits he was not prepared to hang around and wait for the Reds to become major contenders once again.

Torres and David Luiz was transferred for the sum of £75million.

Fernando Torres said: “I think when the new owner, John Henry, came and brought his team with him, the club was moving in the right direction, they have ambition and they know how to do things and go back to the way they were. It is my opinion, though, that they need time for that. Maybe they will need the time while I’m at my best age to play football.”

Also Torres explain why he choose Chelsea and said: “When you have a chance of playing for a team in the Champions League, who have a chance to win the Champions League, and if you are the right age to do that and compete with the best, you have to do that.”

He added: “Maybe it’s too soon to ask for a good reception. I’m not expecting that. But it would be a surprise for me if I get a very bad reception.”
