Liverpool midfielder Alberto Aquilani is becoming part of English football by joining in with the Reds card school. After recovering from his long-term knee injury, Italy international Aquilani made his Liverpool debut this week in the Carling Cup defeat at Arsenal following a trip south that included his introduction to the tradition of the card school.
"He's tried to be involved, not only in the training sessions but off the pitch too," said forward Dirk Kuyt.
"He played cards with us before the Arsenal match and tried to pick up the language. He's learning very quickly for an Italian!"
