I played with him once before for England in America, and he played really well, ... He's fantastic on the ground but he's obviously really tall and can pose problems to everyone's defense. |
I said that my ideal situation was to start the season in the Real Madrid first team and if not I would prefer to return to Liverpool, |

I will have the stitches out on Thursday. I had a little setback but it was not back to square one. It is clearly healing nicely and I am hoping I can play again for Newcastle this season. |

I will try to read a couple of papers! |
I would not settle for getting knocked out in the last four, |
I'm confident in my position in the team and my value to the team from recent and past performances, |

I'm here and I've signed a four-year contract. The one thing I will guarantee is goals. |
