LIVERPOOL FC: CARRA: TORRES WILL PROVE HE'S THE BEST

/noticias.info/ Jamie Carragher today predicted Fernando Torres will return from Euro 2008 as the undisputed best striker in world football.
With 33 goals to his name during a remarkable debut season at Anfield Carragher believes Torres is already the number one striker in the game - and he insists others will share that view if Spain can finally deliver in a major international competition.

"Torres will go there as the best striker in the world and hopefully he will prove that with Spain," said Carragher.

"If he does it will bode well for us next season. He could be the difference for Spain. If you want to go close to winning it you have to have someone who can go close to being leading scorer in the tournament and there's no question that Torres is capable.

"Spain have got other strikers as well, like David Villa, but they will be looking to Torres to get them five or six goals and if he performs as well as he has done for us then I'm sure he can do that."

Torres' scoring feats last season were bettered only by Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo - and Carragher believes those two players could have a key role to play in determining who wins the competition.

"If Spain and Portugal get through the group stages it could come down to Torres and Ronaldo again just like it did in the Premier League.

"And I’m hoping Portugal do go through as well and Ronaldo comes back knackered for next season.

"But if they both do well, the top scorer will probably be one of those two and if one of them hits a rich vein of form it could decide who wins the tournament." notas_de_prensa_archivo
