I enjoy my work. The reason I worked so hard all my life is because I want to be making big decisions and managing at the very highest level.

My template for everything is organisation. With the ball you have to know the movement patterns, the rotation, the fluidity and positioning of the team. When we have the football everybody's a player.

If you give a bad player time, he can play. If you give a good player time, he can kill you.

The Merseyside derby games are unique in the city.

If you look at the world-class performers at the top of the game, their numbers are just exceptional and that is the level he is at.

I have a senior staff meeting every day, with key personnel who interface with the players - coaches, the medical staff, our analyst department. This is a useful exercise as it means we are all across what is happening and they are aware of my expectations.

I'm never going to walk away because I'll always have belief that I can improve players and make things better.
