I'm not blaming Benitez for Morientes failure just like I've never blamed Chelsea for Sheva being a flop; I defy anyone to have seen either of those outcomes coming. All I'm saying is being top quality in one league doesn't mean you'll succeed in another and Torres isn't even top quality in Spain. He's a good striker but not great and for £27m he is way overpriced.
