Liverpool youngster Stefan Bajcetic has revealed his work behind the scenes to get fit and match ready.
The talented midfielder is one who believes he can play regularly for the Reds this season.
Bajcetic broke through into the team last term, but then had an adductor issue in March that ended his season.
"Obviously any injury is tough," said Bajcetic, per the Liverpool Echo.
"The timing doesn't matter if you're playing or not - any injury is tough to take - but this one took quite long to recover from.
It was tough but it was an opportunity as well to do stuff in the gym, get stronger and physically better. So I took that opportunity and now it is about working hard to get back playing.
"When I see the pictures of last season I think 'wow, I did well!'. Since I went to pre-season with the first-team for the first time I've just progressively got more into the team.
It didn't feel that natural at first because I was playing with big, big players, but it was good and now I am striving to get back in."
