I've got my own targets... To establish myself in the team and once you are a regular for Liverpool then England, recognition comes from that and hopefully this will prove the case.

I always stick with the same pair if I am on a scoring streak. I wouldn't change them until I go a game without scoring.

I think I was 5ft 9in at birth.

I wouldn't be here if I didn't believe I was good enough to be here and hopefully I can perform well for my club and try and get to the World Cup.

My dad got me my first pair of boots. It was a big occasion for us to go to the shopping centre. It was an exciting time to make sure you got the right ones.

I' ve got quite narrow feet and they are size 12. I would sometimes get blisters when I was younger but fortunately I don t have much trouble with my feet nowadays.

Had I not become a footballer, I think I would have been... a virgin.
