Paletta, nicknamed 'the Drill' at his former club Banfield, has quickly adapted to the physical side of the English game, throwing himself into tackles on Saturday. Paletta's approach against Crewe won him applause from the Liverpool fans and praise from his manager.

"The language is still a problem for Gabriel and he is having English lessons, but I think it's fair to say there is no problem with his tackling," said Rafa Benitez.
