With big signings last season like Fernando Torres, Ryan Babel, Andriy Voronin and Yossi Benayoun working well at Liverpool's disposal Benitez will want to put an end to the trophy drought at Afield. After a good start to the last season, Rafael Benitez was disappointed with the lack of consistency shown by the "Reds" in the league. But one player who clearly stood out and made an impressive debut into the Premier league was Fernando Torres, winning the hearts of the fans at Anfield by netting 24 goals.
