Spain coach Luis Enrique admits he's been impressed by Rino Gattuso's work at Valencia.
Gattuso is in his first season in charge of VCF - and also his first in Spain.
Enrique said, "Gattuso's Valencia is the team I prefer to watch among the twenty of the Spanish League.
"Gattuso has changed the mentality of his players. I love the energy from him."
Valencia currently sit tenth on the table with the season in their World Cup recess.
