I want to say thanks to the Chelsea fans because I have seen them very, very happy with me for joining Chelsea.

The writing is therapeutic for me, it's an introverted process, I'm really inside my head. It's a really obsessive process. The live show, though, is the opposite. It's an extroverted process. It pushes me to connect with people, and so it pulls me out of my head and just pulls me out of myself.

You have to know what club you are playing for, or you just play for yourself. Every time I put on a Liverpool shirt, I know it is more than just a football game.

My son is a Liverpool fan, and he was already kicking a ball before he was one. He was born in the football city, he had no choice.

When you become an adult you just make that transition and you're right... it's fun and exciting to be an adult and exciting to have independence, but once you're out from under the cover of your family's protection and love, you sort of have to take a step back and come to terms with the fact that you won't really ever have that again in the same way. You'll never be a kid again.

At Liverpool, I had almost everything but titles. I felt like a king, but the team was falling apart.

When you have a bad result, you want the next game to come as quickly as possible because a good result will make people forget about the bad result.
