Steven Gerrard is the best player I've ever played with.

I worry when I can’t help the team with everything I have to offer.

I swear on my children's lives that I never look at the statistics or look at beating anyone's records. All I do is look to improve but not compete against any record. I want to win trophies and score goals because that's my job as a forward.

Look, there’s no rule in soccer against biting your opponent. There’s not even a rule against eating your opponent. The only rule in soccer is that you can’t use your hands.

My desire at Liverpool was to help get the club playing in the elite because they had been five years without it. We used to talk about it in the dressing room. If Liverpool are not in the Champions League, it is difficult to get the best players to come to the club.

I'm paying for a mistake I made

There is always a chance to get even and I'm proud of the fact that for all the blows I always got back up again. That's what makes me most content.
