IAN RUSH: Who I think Liverpool FC manager Rafa Benitez should replace Fernando Torres with

I WASN'T really surprised to hear Fernando Torres is out for the rest of the season.Disappointed, yes. Surprised, no.Bearing in mind the last few seasons he's had, playing through gruelling Premier League and Champions League campaigns straight into the European Championships and Confederation Cup, he's hardly had a rest.When Torres got injured earlier in the season you hoped maybe that was the break he needed. Unfortunately that hasn't been the case.People were quick to criticise Rafa Benitez when he substituted Torres at Birmingham with 25 minutes to go. The Liverpool manager obviously knew something the rest of us didn't.He knew Torres was struggling with his knee and was trying to nurse him through the remainder of the season.We know what a big loss Torres is for Liverpool when he's not available.The question now though, is who should replace him?Among Dirk Kuyt, David Ngog and Ryan Babel, one name that hasn't been mentioned much is Dani Pacheco.
