Rafa Benitez has underlined the importance of Fernando Torres to Liverpool's Premier League title bid after the 26.5-million-pound striker came off the bench to sink Fulham. The Cottagers got within nine minutes of securing a point with a dogged display at Anfield on Saturday, but their defences were breached by a brilliant solo goal from Torres before Steven Gerrard sealed the win with a penalty.
The victory lifted Liverpool into fourth place in the table, three points adrift of joint leaders Arsenal, who travel to Reading on Monday, and Manchester United, who were due to host Blackburn on Sunday.
