Anfield's Argie youngster is hoping to make his mark on the first team after his impressive showing against the Gunners at the weekend.
Emiliano Insua was handed his second Premier League start of the season when Liverpool visited Arsenal on Sunday evening, getting the nod ahead of Italian full-back Andrea Dossena.
The Reds could only manage a 1-1 draw against a 10-man Gunners outfit, but Insua caught the eye with his raiding runs and dangerous delivery from the left flank.
The 19-year-old Argentine was thrilled to get the gig at the Emirates, and he hopes to be given another chance when Bolton Wanderers travel to Merseyside on Boxing Day.
"The boss (Rafael Benitez) gave me an opportunity to show what I can do and maybe I might get another chance to play at Anfield against Bolton," he told Liverpool's official website.
"Anfield is always a very special place to play and hopefully I can stay in the first team squad.
"The manager has given me a lot of confidence and I will keep training hard in every session and always give my best, because when you get your chance you have to take it.
"There is a lot of competition for places at Liverpool but that is a good thing."
Insua arrived in England on an initial loan deal in 2007, before completing a permanent switch from Boca Juniors during the last transfer window.
