Fernando Torres happy under new Chelsea manager Rafael Benitez

Torres happy to be back scoring

Chelsea striker Fernando Torres has said that he is happy with new manager Rafael Benitez's style of football.

The Spain international scored twice for the Blues in their 3-1 away victory over Sunderland in the Premier League on Saturday.

"We are playing a bit differently now," Torres told the BBC. "We do not pass the ball as much as we did in the final third and we play a bit more direct. It was a long time not to score.

"We are attacking more and creating more. Normally, it takes some time with a new manager but the last two results will give us more confidence."

Chelsea are currently third in the Premier League table with 29 points from 16 matches.
