Liverpool teenager Daniel Pacheco has spoke of the assistance he is receiving from senior members of the squad.
The Spaniard is currently in the team for Liverpool's pre-season friendly tour and featured in the opening game against Swiss side St. Gallen.
Pacheco has admitted it is tough competing in such a strong squad, but help from players like Steven Gerrard, Dirk Kuyt and Yossi Benayoun, who speaks Spanish, is aiding his development.
"I am learning a lot from playing alongside Stevie or Dirk or Yossi," Pacheco told the club's official website.
"But I have to keep working hard and try to improve in order to impress the boss.
"Every day I am learning something. Yossi has been helping me a lot - it helps that he can tell me things in Spanish. He tries to help and I try to listen to everything he tells me.
"They are very good players so it's hard but the first-team are good with helping the young players. I'm very happy to be here."
Pacheco is yet to make a competitive first-team appearance for Liverpool since arriving from Barcelona in 2007, but is regarded as an exciting prospect for the future.
