Fernando Torres: I'll be fit for Liverpool's Chelsea game

Liverpool striker Fernando Torres believes he has every chance of playing at Chelsea on Sunday despite coming off in Spain’s 1-0 friendly victory over France last night.

The 23-year-old came off in some discomfort after just 23 minutes but he insists it was his decision to be substituted and although he is set to undergo a scan today at the club’s Melwood training ground he is keen to face Avram Grant’s side.

“I preferred not to risk it. I demanded the change,” he said.

“I will have medical tests but I intend to play on Sunday against Chelsea.”
