The Spanish left-back made his first Premier League appearance in nine months following injury when he came on as a second-half substitute for Liverpool in Sunday’s 3-0 win at Tottenham.
Jose Enrique: "After so long out it was great to be back playing. The only problem was that once I got warm the game was finished!
"I know I have to go little by little and be patient.
"The most important thing is that we are a team. This is a team sport and we all have to fight to make this team better. Hopefully we can do even better than last season.
"I will have my chances. I know I have the confidence of the manager so I'm happy about that.
"Everyone knows that Mario Balotelli has all the qualities to be one of the best strikers in the world.
"He knows this is an amazing chance for him at play for Liverpool and I think he's going to do really well.
"During the time he's been with us I've talked with him a lot and inside the dressing room he's been really good.
"Hopefully what we saw on the pitch at Tottenham is what he'll be like all season. He can make a real impact.
"We have got six points out of nine which is a really good start for us. We've already had two really difficult games against two of the best teams in the league."
