Liverpool's latest signing Philippe Coutinho claims he wants to stay at Anfield for a long time after making an impressive start for the Reds.
The Brazilian youngster signed for £8.5million from Inter Milan in January has made an immediate impact with two goals and two assists in his first four league games.
Kop captain Steven Gerrard insists that Coutinho's "moments of magical brilliance" are going to take Liverpool to the next level.
The former Espanyol forward believes his time in Italy and Spain has helped him adapt to the Premier League so quickly.
"Things have gone really well for me here so far," Coutinho told the Liverpool Echo.
"Maybe because I played in Italy and spent six months in Spain last season that has helped me adapt more quickly to English football.
"Also I must thank my teammates as they have helped me a lot with my first few games. Everyone has made me feel so welcome.
He added: "The games are quicker and more physical but I like that. I am learning all the time.
"Every player wants to improve and get better and I am the same. I am still young and have so much still to learn.
"I hope to be here for many years and become a big player for Liverpool. I will continue to work hard and do my best to improve my performances and help Liverpool."
