Torres was easily the best player I have ever played with in my career. I loved him. And when he approached me and said he wanted out, it was like a knife to the heart.

I'll admit, it gives me a real buzz when I hear my name being chanted and that feeling is the same now as it was when I first broke into the team.

The last player you want the ball to go to is the best player on the planet.

Obviously the fans are very important to me, in fact they mean everything to me and they are the people I try to please when I play.

It was nice to get three goals, but I dont feel I have anything to prove.

I share their frustration at times and I get down just like them when we suffer a bad result.

There's no doubt that the squad needs strengthening if we are to get back up among the top three because they are operating on another level to us at the moment.
