I could be a model for one night. But I'm also a professional soccer player, and I like to be taken seriously on the field.
You just go out and compete and try to earn whatever you can. I'm looking to get better every single day I set foot on this field.
I remember the first time I played on a synthetic turf field. I thought, 'Wow, this is amazing. What is this stuff?' It seemed so much better than that concrete-like Astro Turf that was essentially just a green, thin carpet over hard ground.
All I ask is that you bust your heiny on that field.
Racism is if there are spectators or, outside the field of play, there are movements to discrimination, but, on the field of play, I deny that there is racism.
You've got to make sure the field condition is great for the players, because we're the guys out there running, putting our life on the line, playing hard.
I loved being back out on the pitch. Although I have not been in full training, I felt pretty good.
I have spent much of my youth on artificial pitches. The body can feel a little heavier, but the ball is there quicker and cleaner.
I have no problems with the blue astro-turf. I have got used to it, and I believe that we have got sufficient games to get accustomed to playing on blue turf.
Its great grass at Anfield, professional grass.
