Cavalieri hails Reina's influence

Diego Cavalieri
Cavalieri has made three appearances for Liverpool this season

Liverpool keeper Diego Cavalieri has praised first-choice stopper Pepe Reina for helping him settle at Anfield.

The Brazilian, who played in the 3-1 Champions League win at PSV Eindhoven, says Reina has been a huge help since he arrived in England in the summer.

"He's a good keeper, a good person and has been a good help to me," Cavalieri told BBC Radio Merseyside.

"I'm very happy in Liverpool, with Pepe, the goalkeeping coach and with friends. For me it's very good"

606: DEBATE
Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez signed the 26-year-old from Palmeiras for £3.5m on a four-year contract to act as cover for Reina who, for the past three seasons, has won the Premier League's Golden Glove Award in recognition of his impressive form.
