Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers has revealed Mario Balotelli is spending his down-time swotting up on the club's history.
Balotelli struck his first goal in midweek in victory over Champions League opponents Ludogorets.
"He's a boy who has really looked into the history of the club and he understands the great strikers of the past," Rodgers told the Liverpool Echo.
"We have spoken about [Luis] Suarez and his time here. Remember he's still young, he still wants to learn, he still needs to learn and that's the beauty of it for me.
"When I spoke to him when I first met him he still had this keenness to want to learn and when you see his work against Ludogorets, he put his body on the line and he needs to do more of that.
"I think that will come when he gets fitter and getting into good positions will allow him to score goals. But he's well in tune with the history, not only of the club, but of Liverpool."
