“He has always been Liverpool, it’s something that has always been on my head, always the plan and always Liverpool.
“There was no doubt that this is a place for me and my family. I am one of Liverpool. Someone another day called me a breeded Scoser – I really proud to hear these things, it gives me a lot of feelings.
