Torres eyes Barcelona final
Liverpool striker Fernando Torres wants to take on Barcelona in the final of the Champions League. The Reds have to get past Chelsea in the Champions League semi final first. Torres has a very good goalscoring record against Barcelona.
Torres told Radio Marca FM: "We want to get to the final and it would be great to face Barcelona.
"Here the people want to face Manchester (United), but first we've got to get past the semi-final against Chelsea, which won't be easy."
Torres had several battles with Barcelona during his time playing for Atletico Madrid; and the Spaniard believes the Premiership is better than La Liga: "I think that the difference between the two leagues are the top teams.
"I think the top four in England are above the top four in Spain, especially in terms of consistency, but the rest of the teams in Spain are better, there's more quality."
