Fernando Torres assured of Chelsea future after talks

Fernando Torres says talks with Chelsea bosses have assured the Spain striker that his future lies with the Champions League winners.

Torres said he was considering moving away from Stamford Bridge after starting the final against Bayern Munich on the bench, but says talks with club owner Roman Abramovich have left "no doubts of what is expected" of the player.

Torres compared his erratic form this season to a roller coaster ride, and said he struggled mentally after the club failed to fully back him following his 50-million pound move from Liverpool last season.

The 28-year-old Torres is set to help Spain defend its European title this summer, and says he has overcome his dip in form.
