The Champions League is the competition everyone wants to be in.

I listen to the phone-ins on the way home and I know how the fans feel.

To me it's the best trophy you can win and to bring it back for all them fans that have supported us right through would be something special.

I think we've got a lot players in the squad who are more suited to European football at the moment.

But I it doesn't matter who scores the goals so long as we win.

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.

I watched Italia '90 with my Mum and Dad and my brother, you know, leaping around the house when the penalties were on... It would be great to be part of that, to have that kind of impact.

The Champions League is the competition everyone wants to be in.

I'm a fan myself and I'm frustrated just as much as them when we get beat.

Even now I can say I'd love to finish my career here, and then stay in the game after that.

We are Liverpool Football Club and the expectations are so high.

But I think the Champions League Final puts a massive pressure on every player and the manager, but we're enjoying the pressure and hopefully we can go there and win it.

I've got absolutely no intention of ever going to play at another club.

The fans have played a massive part in getting us to where we are, but the job's not finished.

This club is all about winning trophies and we've got a chance of bringing the greatest trophy of them all back to Anfield, so it means a great deal obviously.

Hopefully it'll give us a bit of luck on the night, but I'm not really a superstitious person.

It will be a dream come true if I can go there and lift it.

The odds were against us, but we deserve to be where we are.

I think every player listens out for his name being sung and it's something I really enjoy.

Against Juventus we were massive underdogs, so to beat them was fantastic.

I think it all goes down to who plays the better football on the night.

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

107 caps isn't bad for someone who isn't 'a top, top player', is it? I never expected to get that amount of caps. When I made my debut, I set myself the personal target of trying to get 50 caps and score 10 goals if I could. So to have 107 is something I am really proud of, particularly being among those names.

Grilled salmon and brown pasta works for me every time.

I was always determined to make it as a footballer, but if things hadn't worked out, I'd have maybe followed my dad into the building industry.

I'm born in Liverpool, I'm a Liverpool supporter.

I'm playing second fiddle to Justin Bieber - Bieber Fever is sweeping our house, and my girls have made it clear I'm no longer their favourite man.

If other people want to talk about my future I can't control that.

If you don't play well, you have a bad game or a nightmare you know that the amount of coverage is worldwide.

In football, the hero and legend status is given out far too easily for me.

It was difficult knowing one of your cousins had lost his life.

It's too easy to blame other people in football.

When I leave the car park at Melwood, I try and become a completely different person. I try to get away from it. You have got to. Otherwise you end up like Jamie Carragher - obsessed!

Dont try to beat the goalkeeper. Try to destroy the goalkeeper.

Football is all about winning things as a team but it's also important to pick up individual awards along the way.

Some people don't like competition because it makes them work harder, better.

Anytime you have a difficult encounter with your child, there is a good chance that at least one of these factors is bringing out the worst in him or her: transitions, time pressure, competition for your attention, conflicting objectives.

I want to be the first lady to land a quadruple jump in competition. As I grow older, I know that my skating style will develop and mature.

The time has come for the American government to recognize the damage that has occurred to our economy, and to take firm action to curtail what I believe is both unfair and illegal foreign competition.

In my fifty years of experience and memory, I have seen the most amazing increase in the standard of living of a people ever achieved anywhere in the world. This is why I am so sure that our system of free competition and industrial development is sound and must be preserved.

We got to know the competition very well. In the '50s popcorn made a big growth in sales. Our main push was to produce the best quality and sell in quality retail outlets.

We live in a time today where we face fierce global competition.

The person who figures out how to harness the collective genius of his or her organization is going to blow the competition away.

And while the law of competition may be sometimes hard for the individual, it is best for the race, because it ensures the survival of the fittest in every department.

The time is coming when the pressure of population on the means of subsistence will be felt here as it is now felt in Europe and Asia. Then will the world enter upon a new stage of its history - the final competition of races, for which the Anglo-Saxon is being schooled.

Running became boring because it's so predictable. I got to a point where I knew what my competition could do.

There are horses people use for competition, and if they don't perform well or go lame, then people ask the vet to put them down to get the insurance money. And my vet knows I love horses, so he gives them to me.

Well, we know that people in Australia love the idea of both Impulse and Virgin Blue getting up and adding a bit of competition, and it's fun to be able to deliver it.

I kinda see everyone as competition. I'm a very competitive person. But I think that's good. Competition is great. And as long as it's friendly and not a malicious thing, then I think it's cool.
