Keane is yet to score for Liverpool since completing his £20million switch from Tottenham Hotspur during the summer. Big things are expected of the former Internazionale hitman, his partnership with Torres having been billed as the second coming of Ian Rush and Kenny Dalglish. The pair have shown glimpses of their potential together, but the Irishman's indifferent form and the Spaniard's recent injury troubles mean they have failed to truly click as yet.
Nonetheless, the Reds have made a brilliant start to the campaign as they remain unbeaten and are level on points with league leaders Chelsea. Torres attributes much of the club's good form to Keane's presence within the squad, and he claimed the ex-Leeds player need only find the net once to open the floodgates. “I know Robbie is going to be a very important player for us.
Maybe he needs to score his first goal then he’ll go on to score a lot more — as that’s the type of player he is,” Torres was quoted as saying by The Sun. “When you arrive you want to score straight away to relieve the pressure. He’s just waiting to score that first goal but he’s still great to have in the dressing room.”
