Torres netted 81 goals in 142 games for Liverpool, but his confidence spiralled in a comparatively barren start to his Chelsea career, which has regularly seen suggestions Roman Abramovich is running out of patience with his biggest on-field investment and is prepared to cut his losses.Torres is also thriving again - albeit in fits and starts - under Rafael Benitez, the man who took him from Atletico Madrid to Liverpool and now Chelsea's interim boss.Yet the World Cup winner appears to be enjoying the Europa League, netting four times in the last three matches to help Chelsea to Thursday's semi-final first leg at Basle, and he envisages a long and successful spell in west London alongside the likes of Juan Mata, Eden Hazard, David Luiz and Oscar.We are sure that we are a great team and we want to show everyone. I would like to be involved.I have many things still to give to this club," Torres said.His compatriot's arrival coincided with seven goals in six games, but then Torres managed just one goal - against League One Brentford - prior to his strike against Steaua in the Europa League last 16.I have three more years contract so I'm expecting to stay at least three years.To be out of the Champions League was a very disappointing time for us but we changed our minds and started thinking about the Europa League.We won the Champions League last season. Hopefully we can win the Europa League this one. It is our priority as well as finishing in the top four.
