Fernando Torres' rare interview in Chelsea's matchday programme could hardly have been more prophetic as the striker came within inches of ending his latest goal drought in their 1-0 win over Sunderland.Frank Lampard will go down in the history books as the Blues' matchwinner but even he admitted his goal owed everything to Torres, who supplied the assist - albeit an unwitting one - in what was arguably his best Chelsea performance at Stamford Bridge.He seemed to know what was coming beforehand, saying: "I'm hoping now I can find my best form again."He added: "It's been a different style here for me to adapt to and I've been giving assists for my team-mates, which has helped us towards winning games."But obviously, as a striker, I'm always trying to score and I always want to score."That's what I want to do for Chelsea and, hopefully, I'll start doing it this year."Indeed, Torres appears to have drawn a line under his nightmare 2011 as he begins 2012 knowing Didier Drogba's absence at the African Nations Cup would give him the run in the side he needs."It seems like a lot longer than one year since I arrived here," he added."It's been a very hard year, with lots of change at the club and in both my personal and professional life, but I have felt welcome here from the beginning and I feel even more settled now."The reception from everyone at the club, including the fans, has been unbelievable."
