Torres out of Lyon clash
Fernando Torres has failed to recover from his injury in time to face Lyon on Tuesday in the UEFA Champions League.
Torres missed the weekend loss at Sunderland with a muscle problem he picked up whilst on international duty.
He sat out training on Monday morning, whilst fellow injury victim Steven Gerrard joined the rest of the squad.
But now Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez has confirmed that his star striker will not be fit to face the French giants at Anfield, although he could still face Manchester United at the weekend.
"Torres is still not ready. Hopefully he will be for the weekend, but not for this game," said Benitez - who confirmed his skipper Gerrard has recovered from his groin problem.
"Steven is fit. He has been training so hopefully he will be available tomorrow.
"It is important as we have had some problems with injuries since the start of the season, so having Gerrard fit is a big boost for us."
