career city falling felt football half maybe season though time
There was a season and a half at City when I felt as though my football world was falling apart, when I felt for the first time that I didn't want to play, that maybe my career had come to an end and I should look for something else,
dark
All I've got to do is go and out play. I'm as much in the dark as anyone.
bad doctors guarantee
The medial ligament was snapped, the cruciate ligament ruptured and the cartilage was torn. The doctors told me it was so bad that they couldn't guarantee anything, not even that I would play again.
needs shooting
Anyone who doesn't learn from Ian Rush needs shooting.
football kids decision
As a young kid, I wasn't really interested at that stage - getting financial advice was far from my mind. I was focused on playing football. But I got onboard with this financial adviser and I heeded his advice, and that was my smartest money decision.
baby children house
I do a fair bit for children's charities. The big ones I support in Liverpool are Zoe's Place Baby Hospice, and Claire House Children's Hospice. I donate money and time but the time is what they value the most. If my inclusion at any event they're doing, helps them to raise more money, then of course I'll be there.
trying my-family
The money I try and earn is for my family. It's not for me. It's always about my family.
leader spending behinds
After spending so much money Liverpool were a lot further behind the leaders when Houllier left than before he arrived
player decision questioning
Houllier couldn’t deal with players expressing any anger or questioning any of his decisions
football hate talking
I hate talking about football. I just do it, you know?
goal matter mark
A goal is a goal no matter which end it goes in. I'm pleased to get off the mark again.
retirement player games
I don't want people losing respect for me as a player. I want to go out in every game and perform to the highest level. I have no retirement plans. I've had a lot of injuries but I want to continue playing.
christmas kids first-love
If you pray enough for things, I am proof that they can happen. I feel like a kid on Christmas day now, every day. It's something I have wanted for a long time and I am as happy as anyone to be here. It is great to be back at my first love.
player thinking shadow
The best player EVER (Leo Messi) without a shadow, if you didn't think/know already...
