Rafael Benitez has again stressed he won't be persuaded to veer away from his much talked about rotation system at Anfield.  
With Fernando Torres' omission from the starting eleven last weekend dominating the thoughts of most Liverpool fans during the week, the manager has again explained his thinking behind decisions which he believes will give the Reds a better chance of success come the end of the season.
  
"As a manager, you need to see the bigger picture and think about the whole season," he said. "If we need to use our big names in every game at Anfield against teams like Birmingham, then maybe we won't be good enough to win trophies at the end of the season.
  
"If you say to me that I would have had to play Torres to be capable of beating Birmingham, then I'd say that we couldn't win the league.
  
"Sometimes I will make mistakes, but I was 100 per cent sure it wasn't a mistake not to play Torres against Birmingham. Kuyt and [Andriy] Voronin had been playing well, and at home at Anfield against Birmingham, I thought we had enough to win.
  
"Why are we talking about Torres now and weren't when Kuyt and Voronin were scoring in the Champions League? The answer is because we were winning those games. We're only talking about Torres not playing because we drew with Portsmouth and Birmingham.
  
"I've done the same for seven years now and we've been winning trophies. The last 10 games of the season are probably the most important and you won't win anything if your players aren't physically ready.
  
"Torres can play 20 or 30 games in a row without any problem, but he won't be at the same level in the last few months of the season when we hope to be playing for trophies.
  
"We've played a final at the end of each season I've been here. Why? Because we've had a big squad without maybe as many bigger players as we have now, and were going into games with fresh legs. That proves that the system can work."
