Lucas Leiva admits he's benefited from Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez's rotation policy.

"Gerrard is undoubtedly the face of Liverpool Football Club, possibly the face of English football," Lucas told Globoesporte.

"But we can play together and have already done so to good effect. The manager, Rafa Benitez, has a philosophy whereby he likes to rotate, sometimes four players from game to game. And this has worked to my advantage."
