Carroll: don't compare me to Torres © EuroFootball.com

The new striker Andy Carroll claims he does not feel pressure to replace former fans' favorite Fernando Torres. The Spaniard was one of the most beloved footballers by the 'Reds' fans, but on Monday he moved to "Chelsea" in London for 58.5 million euros. Such a decision was publicly accepted by burning Torres jerseys. "Liverpool" officials decided to replace Torres with Carroll, for whom they paid 41 million euros. "Torres was a great player, but I need to focus on my game - the one I know how to demonstrate," said the 22-year-old newcomer. "A huge amount of money was paid for me, so I have to prove that I am worth it. "I came here to score goals and create opportunities for others - that's what I can do. I scored at the "Newcastle" club, so we will have to wait and see if I will repay the amount paid."
