EXCLUSIVE<\/strong>
By Alex Labidou<\/p>\n

Spanish international and Liverpool<\/a> goalkeeper Pepe Reina<\/a> insists that there is no bad blood between him and Chelsea<\/a> striker Fernando Torres<\/a>, despite his fellow countryman\u2019s decision to leave Liverpool.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s already been discussed between us, we\u2019ve already talked about it,\u201d Reina said exclusively to Goal.com<\/strong>. \u201cI wish him the best, he wishes me the best. Our relationship is the same that it was when we played with each other.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cWe both want to see each other succeed.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, while Reina doesn\u2019t feel any acrimony towards his fellow Spaniard, he has a hunch that Liverpool will be better than Chelsea in 2011-12.<\/p>\n

\u201cI certainly hope so,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019ve positioned ourselves to do well next season.\u201d<\/p>\n

Under the new American ownership led by John W. Henry and Tom Werner and the hiring of Kenny Daglish, Liverpool have seen their fortunes change for the better, rising from near the drop zone to finish in sixth place in the Premier League in 2010-11.<\/p>\n

Reina was one of the players rumoured to be considering an exit from the Merseyside club before that turn-around. The 29-year-old’s new confidence in Liverpool reflects credit on their new owners and manager, and with more signings expected he should continue to be in good spirits.<\/p>\n

But with club football now enjoying a summer break, Reina is focused on his career with Spain.<\/p>\n

The world champions has a chance to avenge their 2009 Confederations Cup 2-0 defeat against the United States, and while Reina didn\u2019t play in that match, he believes that winning the World Cup has made most of the Spanish squad relaxed about the loss two years ago, and ready to show their ability in front of American fans.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor us, it\u2019s not about payback, we won the World Cup,\u201d said Reina. \u201cIt\u2019s good to get out there and play in front of the fans. It\u2019s all about enjoying ourselves and showing what we can do.\u201d<\/p>\n
