"The difference last time was a £25m centre forward," he said.
"If we are going to get something then we will have to be right at the top of our game.
"Torres is quality. Hopefully we will have learned from last time and if he is playing we will know what to do."

Reading 1-2 Liverpool
You have to wonder what this game may bring considering Liverpool are on form and Reading are performing miserably; but a win for either side will be needed as each has their own seperate ambitions. An away win is more than likely. Fernando Torres will be the one to stop - and Reading won't be able to.
Goalscorer: Fernando Torres
