"What I like about him is he doesn't give defenders time to rest on the ball," said Rush.
"If you close down the play like that, five times out of 10 the ball goes out of play and you've won it back. You've done your job. Of course you don't have to play that way, it depends which club you're at.
"I believe there are strikers who are happy to score whether they win, draw or lose. Thierry Henry for example. But I was brought up at Liverpool knowing the team comes first, goals second.
"My job was to make it harder for the opposition. If I could win the ball I'd close the defender down, which would make it easier for the midfield, who'd do the same for the defence. If you do it right, hopefully the goalkeeper doesn't touch the ball. We worked as a unit."
