• Torres out to forget domestic drought in Spain's Euro qualifier
Fernando Torres, right, embraces Sergio Ramos as the Spain team meet in Madrid to prepare for their Euro 2012 qualifier.
Fernando Torres is not losing any sleep over his failure to score for Chelsea. The Spaniard has been unable to find the target in seven appearances since joining Carlo Ancelotti's side in a £50m deal from Liverpool on transfer deadline day.
Torres has joined up with his national side to prepare for the Euro 2012 qualifier against the Czech Republic in Granada on Friday but he says domestic concerns will not weigh heavily on his mind while on international duty.
"I am not anxious about the fact that I haven't scored my first goal for Chelsea," Torres said while on a visit to his home town of Fuenlabrada near Madrid.
"This is an issue for the papers, not for me. I am confident that the goals will soon come. It is more important that Chelsea win than I score."
