Everton goalkeeper Asmir Begovic says they players are happy playing for manager Rafa Benitez.

The veteran says the Everton squad have really taken to Benitez.

"It takes a while to get used to everything and the demands of the manager," he said in an interview with Sky Sports.

"But our manager has been no different. He's obviously achieved so many things in the game. For me it's incredible to even learn from him and pick his brain on other things.

"When he speaks you definitely listen and he's been great to us.

"Very open and honest to everyone and I think the group has really taken to that."
