Roy Hodgson has spoken of his delight after two of his most promising talents Martin Kelly and Daniel Pacheco recently signed new contracts that will keep them at Anfield until 2014.
The boss said it was a reward for their work in training and he has now challenged the pair to show they can break into the first-team on a regular basis.
"I'm very pleased with the news," Hodgson told Liverpoolfc.tv.
"I'm also pleased for both the players they've done well with the chances they've been given and they are both working very hard in training.
"When you have got young quality players like them who you have invested time and money in then it's important to keep them at the club - otherwise someone else gets the benefit of the investment you've put in - not only money but terms of your coaching of the players.
"I'm pleased they are staying and it's up to them to really push hard whenever they get a chance and make sure they get into the first team as quickly as possible."
