However the Spaniard was fully aware of the danger his World Cup-winning international team-mate possesses.
"I would rather play with Torres than against him," Silva told Sky Sports' Barclays Premier League preview show.
"We all know that Fernando is a very good player. At any moment he can win the match.
"I want to win as it is the first home game. I hope we will start well."
