Torres recommends Valencia trio
 Villa, Mata and Silva have been on Confederations Cup duty with Torres |
Fernando Torres has recommended three of his Spanish international team-mates to Rafael Benitez in the hope that the Liverpool manager will sign one.
The striker insists any one of Valencia attacking trio David Silva, Juan Mata or David Villa would help the Reds win a first top-flight title in 20 years.
"I have recommended Silva, Mata or Villa to Benitez and I hope we have the money to buy them," said Torres.
"They're small players with quality and maybe they can make the difference."
Liverpool have already shown interest in 27-year-old striker Villa, who is also a target of Chelsea and Spanish side Real Madrid.
And Reds boss Benitez is also keen on 23-year-old Silva who can play on either wing or as a supporting striker, but he too is reportedly being courted by Real.
Mata, 21, is a left-sided forward, who Barcelona are rumoured to be interested in.
"Silva, Mata and Villa are small players with quality like United had with Carlos Tevez and Paul Scholes," said Torres.
"Yossi Benayoun plays like these kind of players and I hope we can bring in more like that so then we have different options to play against all the sides."
Liverpool came close to wresting the Premier League title from Manchester United's grasp last season, but, despite beating the Red Devils at Anfield and Old Trafford, they finished four points adrift of the champions.
And Torres pointed to Liverpool's inability to beat the likes of Stoke, Fulham, West Ham and Hull at Anfield as the reason for their failure to land the title.
"We have a fantastic team to play against the big teams and we are competitive," he said.
"But maybe against those teams lower down we are not good enough. We have to improve that and I think we can.
"I think we can definitely be stronger at home. We have some very good players but maybe we need other playeer.
