Goals bring smiles back to Torres

Rafael Benitez has revealed scoring goals has put the smile back on Fernando Torres' face ahead of Chelsea's Club World Cup campaign.

Torres finally emerged from his latest wretched run of form last week when he netted four times in Benitez's first two wins in charge against Nordsjaelland and Sunderland. The £50million man is hitting his stride at just the right time for Chelsea's bid to make amends for their failed defence of the Champions League by being crowned champions of the world.

"I have to speak to him in Spanish so he can tell me any jokes he has," interim manager Benitez said. "When a striker is scoring, he is happy, happy. I've noticed the difference in him too."
