Rafa Benitez believes Fernando Torres is now clear of the injury problems that plagued the Spanish striker last season.
A succession of hamstring injuries undermined Liverpool's title challenge and left the Kop boss frustrated.
Benitez said: "We are trying to keep Torres fit and last year we had a specific plan. But now it is a case where I don't think he will have special treatment.
"We have all the medical staff and coaches checking everything. He has been away with Spain in the Confederations Cup so we have to be careful."
Benitez will hold talks with Xabi Alonso and Javier Mascherano over the next 24 hours and is confident one if not both will stay at Anfield.
