Torres key to Liverpool hopes (0)

Fernando Torres spent almost an hour of the Merseyside derby frustrated and at odds with the world - then took just three minutes to demonstrate why Liverpool's hopes of ending their long wait to land a Premier League title rest largely on his shoulders.
Torres spent most that hour complaining to referee Mike Riley about what he thought, wrongly it must be said, was heavy-handed treatment from Everton's defence.
He eventually picked up a yellow card, but finally focused his attention on being a world-class striker again to make it three straight home defeats in the league for a bitterly disappointing Everton side.
