Benitez happy with choice

Rafa Benitez has claimed he is excited about the opportunity of working with five top strikers in Dirk Kuyt, Ryan Babel, Andrei Voronin, Fernando Torres and Peter Crouch. Benitez argued that competition will only be good for the club, however Rafa will struggle in finding the perfect combination of strikers for Liverpool whilst keeping them all happy.

Fernando Torres was a close season signing that could be worth over £25m and has underlined Liverpool's championship credentials. Benitez has claimed that the different strikers allow Liverpool to play in different ways against different sides. Crouch for one is useful for holding up the ball, whilst Babel or Kuyt is more useful in a counter attacking style.
