Liverpool defender Stephen Sama admits he sticks close to Jamie Carragher.

Sama is eager to learn as much as he can from the Reds icon.

"I have always liked William Gallas but since coming here I've looked up to Jamie Carragher. He has given me some great advice and been a real inspiration to me. He's a fantastic defender," he told liverpoolfc.tv.

"Just being here is incredible. Liverpool are one of the biggest teams in the world and I feel so proud to be here."
