Divock Origi is confident that his selfless attitude can help him to become a success at Liverpool.
The striker has made eight appearances in his first season with the Reds and while he is still searching for his first goal, his work rate in particular has caught the eye.
It was perhaps most noticeable in Jurgen Klopp's first game in charge of Liverpool, away at Tottenham, in which Origi was picked to lead the line.
"The manager has a clear objective and when I was speaking to him prior to that particular game he just told me to give it my all," Origi told the official Liverpool FC magazine.
"Every trainer has his own way of managing and his own methods. The thing I like is that he's very direct and can show his plan and convince everybody with his ideas very quickly.
"That is the one thing that struck me from the start of his training sessions: he is very clear in his way of explaining and his vision.
"I am a player who is quite generous and yes, I try to help the team where I can. I hadn't seen those stats [covered 11km] but it is nice to know that I was able to contribute in this way.
"The chance I had with the header early on was frustrating as I was a crossbar's width away from opening my scoring account for Liverpool.
"It was a big day for me and I wanted to show my qualities in a big game against Tottenham Hotspur and the first game of the new manager."
Origi, 20, is now hoping to show Liverpool fans more of what he is capable of and believes his versatility will give him more of a chance to do so.
"One of my qualities is that I am versatile so I can play as one of two strikers, three strikers, on the wing or upfront as the main forward," Origi said.
"When you are up front you are closer to the goal and can potentially score more often so I would say I prefer this position.
"But I am young and I will play wherever the coach needs me. It was nice to see the change in tactics and I can adapt.
"I still have a lot of things that I can show to the fans here. One of my attributes is that I can carry the ball and take on defenders in one-on-ones with my pace.
"Setting up the goal for Adam Lallana [against FC Sion] was a nice moment and I feel that I am improving my game every time I get on the pitch."
