AC Milan goalkeeper Diego Lopez rates on-loan Chelsea striker Fernando Torres as better than Mario Balotelli.
Balotelli left Milan last month for Liverpool.
Speaking to Milan Channel, the 32-year-old claimed: "Torres is a great signing. We're talking about a player who has done amazing things, who has experience, speed, and will be important.
"Balotelli? Torres will be more useful as he has shown the characteristics needed to win."
