Liverpool management are delighted for Mario Balotelli after his winner against Tottenham.
Pascoe admits the goal has not done Balotelli any harm.
"Mario is Mario. He comes in every day, works hard. He is one of those guys who when he is out there he wants to work well," said the assistant boss, standing in for manager Brendan Rodgers who was returning from Italy on player-related business.
"It was great for him the other night when he got his goal.
"It is not about one player, it is about the group, and the next game with all the players available.
"He has put himself out there for selection for the next game with his contribution the other night.
"Every team is picked for certain occasions. Mario probably does need a run of games but Daniel Sturridge had come back in as well and all strikers need a run of games."
