I was a late developer.

Sadio is a match winner.

It's obviously nice to contribute.

I think managers see that I am honest.

I just want to contribute as much as possible.

It's cliched but football has its own language.

You don't have to always win by scoring five or six.

Getting to two finals is difficult in the same season.

I think Dele Alli is one who is psychologically strong.

It's a good feeling to know you've had a good day at work.

It's about just staying fit, staying strong and staying ready.

I will always love Southampton. I had a great time down there.

I don't think by any stretch I'm an established international.

The only thing you are guaranteed in football is disappointment.

I just want to enjoy my football. That's when I am at my happiest.

It's like an addiction: you win one medal and you want to win more.

I'm confident enough in my own ability and what I bring to the squad.

Going out on to the pitch and being mentally free is a massive thing.

We have good stages in our career and stages where you could do better.

If we are going to achieve something, we are going to need a strong bench.

Everton always seemed to be fighting relegation when I was supporting them.

Whatever my contract situation is, that will be going on in the background.

I want the best players to be linked with Liverpool and coming to Liverpool.

I feel as though I have established myself at Liverpool and I am enjoying it.

Deep down I hope Saints fans appreciate the times we had at the club together.

The older I get, the more I am willing to sacrifice myself for the team to win.

I could have stayed at Southampton until I retired and finished my career there.

It's a great mentality that we have, we don't want to settle for just winning games.

Being the hero doesn't bother me, but being part of a successful team does bother me.

It's always good, even in training, to show the manager what you can do and remind him.

Sometimes when you are a professional footballer, you have to deal with tough decisions.

I'm not one that sulks when he's injured. I use it as time to learn, to pick up on things.

Sometimes as a No. 8 you are making decoy runs, or you are offering and you don't get the ball.

I've always had a good relationship with Pochettino. We are very good friends off the pitch now.

When someone else is injured, they are the ones who motivate you. It's not just for yourself - it's for them.

We want to progress and ultimately win something. You can't do that with 11, 12 or 13 players, you need a squad.

When you're having a tough time as a team, you all need to stay together - you can't start becoming individuals.

Sadio can play on the left or the right. It's similar to me, I used to play out wide and I now play more central.

Throughout the course of the season everyone is going to have to contribute if you want to achieve something special.

Every now and again, it doesn't hurt to utter some home truths as long as it is not personal, just purely professional.

Being as fit as I can, and working as hard as I can, is at the forefront of my mind. The rest will take care of itself.

I feel now that a tackle or an interception high up the pitch is as nice a feeling as creating a goal for someone else.

I'd always like to score at Goodison Park, being an Everton fan growing up. Anfield as well would be a nice place to score.

We don't ever want to be complacent, and it's good to look back and see places you can improve. That's a good mentality to have.

I had a great time getting promoted twice in two years, but I never forget how special it is to be playing in the Premier League.

It is something you can't quite explain unless you have experienced it. There is that difference when you pull on a Liverpool shirt.

Every footballer gets injuries - Jordan Henderson has had a tough couple of years. We all have to deal with it at some stage in our career.

People said when I was a young lad 'Oh he's got good feet.' He's good in small spaces and that's something I have always had since a young age.

At times, my insecurities were real. How am I going to get back into the team? I felt like I was climbing a ladder that was never-ending at times.

When the manager comes in he cannot say, 'This is something I want to do.' It is an environment that the manager creates and it happens over time.
