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.

The Champions League is a big ambition and all the footballers want to play in it. It is a very important competition.

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.

I know my statistics have not been the same as in other years but I'm fighting to get back to those statistics.

I don't know what to say about myself. I don't know myself (laughs). People say my humility but I believe we're all humble in our own way. I try to stay close to my family and friends.

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