Luis Diaz has stunned many Liverpool supporters with his quick start to life at the club.
Signed by the Reds in the January transfer window, the Colombian has quickly adapted to Jurgen Klopp's style of play and is already earning rave reviews for his performances.
Diaz made his debut for the club against Cardiff City in the FA Cup and scored his first goal in a 3-1 league win over Norwich City last month.

Liverpool were already aware of the quality possessed by the 25-year-old, having faced off against him earlier in the season during Champions League matches with Porto.
Not everyone was as clued up on Diaz, however.
Ex-Reds midfielder Adam Lallana has been stunned by the instant impact of the former Porto star, admitting he did not expect to witness such an impressive introduction.
He told BBC Radio 5 Live Sport. “I still can’t believe how well Diaz has settled, having been a player that has gone to Liverpool and knowing how difficult it was to settle.
“I am not sure what Diaz’s English is like. But coming from a different country in January, and to play the way he has played, is absolutely phenomenal.
"I was at Wembley, to see how he performed, I think he was Liverpool’s best player and most dynamic.
“I actually feel a little embarrassed that I hadn’t heard about him before. That just shows the level of recruitment at Liverpool. They have been spot on in that kind of £50million bracket. With Salah, Mane, Firmino and Jota. They have just got it right.”
Lallana will have the chance to witness the ability of Diaz first-hand this Saturday when Liverpool and Brighton go head-to-head in the Premier League, should the Reds' January recruit be chosen to feature at the Amex Stadium.
Graham Potter's side will likely cause problems of their own, though are currently on a poor run of four successive Premier League defeats.
