Liverpool striker Divock Origi says he is learning from Daniel Sturridge and wants to emulate the England star's movement.
Origi, 20, has improved markedly this season, scoring eight goals including three in his last two games.
The Belgium international has gone up a shirt size after putting on considerable muscle and Origi insists it was necessary to compete with the best in the Premier League.
"When you come to this league you realise you have to be physically strong because it is very intensive," he said.
"I came here and saw how professional all the players were. I was 19 years old - I only started playing top football when I was 17-and-a-half - and seeing how the big players worked inspired me.
"I have been trying to work on this and I also think it is important for a football player to improve in every part. I think I have seen big improvements.
"My qualities are more when I move around and use my speed. You have to learn how to use this.
"I try to see how Daniel moves. He moves very smart, he comes between the lines and he finishes very well. He is creative, so he has a lot of qualities and talent, and he makes steps to become a big player.
"So when I play with him, I see a lot of things I can bring out in my game. So that's my aim; to make the same progress like him."
