New signing Maxi Rodriguez has taken almost no time at all to become settled at Liverpool and has been speaking about how much he is enjoying life at Anfield.

“It’s going fantastic so far and I couldn’t have hoped for better,” he told Liverpoolfc.tv. “It’s so different to daily life in Madrid, but I think I am settling in and it’s even better here than I expected it to be.

“Gradually as the weeks have gone by, I’ve been getting used to daily life in the city. I think it will be even better when I’m more settled.

“It’s totally different here to the football in La Liga. Certainly you are aware of the fact it is a lot more physical, tougher and aggressive – they are the big differences.

“But wherever you play football in the world, you still play with a round ball, so you get used to it.
“What’s more, I really like the competitive, physical aspect of the game. I think it suits my style and I’m enjoying it.”

It’s early days yet but the signs are good that Maxi and Liverpool end up being a perfect fit, he can only improve as he gets more used to the English game and a happy and contented person as he appears to be stands a far better chance of being more effective on the field as opposed to a less than happy player.
In better words its good to hear some positive news like this for a change.
