Torres not at Reds peak - Benitez

Rafael Benitez admits Chelsea's Fernando Torres has not recaptured the form he showed when at Liverpool. The Blues interim manager says Torres' performances can improve but is unsure how close to that level he can get. Torres, 28, scored 81 goals in 142 appearances for Liverpool after being signed by Benitez in 2007, but has only got 19 since his 2011 move to Chelsea. "It [Torres' form] is not the same now as when he was at his maximum but I think he can come back," Benez said. "How close? I don't know. It also depends on the rest of the team. I think he can improve but the team has to help him." Chelsea are without a win in five league games ahead of Wednesday's meeting with local rivals Fulham.
