Striker Fernando Torres admits he has taken to life in Liverpool and is hoping to remain at Anfield 'for many years to come'.

The Spain international, who joined the Reds in a £20million deal from Atletico Madrid earlier in the summer, has made an instant impact in the Premier League.

Torres opened his Liverpool account with a goal in the 1-1 draw with Chelsea last month before scoring twice against Derby County during Saturday's 6-0 rout.

"I am learning quickly and my team-mates have played an important role, along with everyone at the club who have all gone out of their way to help me," he told the club's official website.

"I feel as if I have been at Liverpool for a long time.

"I intend to stay here for many years to come and I am really pleased with everything - my new team-mates, the fans, the city, the stadium and, of course with my first goal at Anfield versus Chelsea.

"The experience is more fulfilling when things work out and if we can maintain our recent form, I am sure that everything will continue to move along nicely."
