Suso has outlined why he relishes the training regime implemented under Brendan Rodgers.

The Spaniard has likened the style of the manager to that of a coach back in his homeland, with emphasis during sessions at Melwood firmly on use of the ball.

"I look at him and I see him as similar to a Spanish coach because all the work we do in training is with the ball," Suso told Liverpoolfc.com.

"Every time he asks us to do something it's with the ball. He wants us to play with the ball, never play a long ball and for me that's really good because that's my philosophy. When I go away with Spain it's more or less the same.

"He has done really well since he came here. When he first came he had to change some things and improve the team, which takes a long time, but now we can see all the things he was working with in the past is working now.

"It's a Spanish philosophy to play; you always want the ball, don't lose it and give it to the opposition. It's really good for me and the team."
