Benitez's position as Liverpool manager is under threat as the Reds are in the middle of their worst season since Gerard Houllier's final year in charge. However, Torres believes sacking Benitez would be a huge mistake.
"I think sacking the manager is not a solution," said the striker.
"We have to play much better. The players are the people that have to find a solution to the situation.
"It's a difficult situation but every top team in the world goes sometimes through a bad situation like Liverpool now. Like every top team in the world, Liverpool will get over the situation."
