Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina believes that striker Luis Suarez has replaced former Anfield favourite Fernando Torres.
The Spanish frontman ended his time at the Reds with a £50m switch to rivals Chelsea in January.
While the 27-year-old has insisted that Liverpool fans are unaware of the full story behind his departure, Reina thinks that the Reds following have a new hero.
"Fernando is top class; Luis is as good or even better than Fernando," said Reina, speaking at the launch of his book Pepe: My Autobiography.
"Those players are really special. You don't find those kind of players very often.
"The club did a good job in signing Luis and hopefully he will be many years with us and hopefully he will score as many goals as Fernando."
The two strikers could come face-to-face at Stamford Bridge this Sunday.
