I am more focused on the games; things like contracts I leave with my agent.
I would prefer to play for and against an attacking team, but I am now used to playing against defensive teams.
I was a Barcelona fan. My favorite player was Ronaldinho. But I watched a lot of English football and admired lots of English teams.
It is very exciting to be playing in the Champions League because it is the dream of every player in the world.
It was a normal childhood, like the childhoods of all children my age: going to school, playing in the street with friends, spending time at home with my family.
I have a chef who cooks for me. I like to eat healthy.
I was brought up correctly and in the right way, and my parents are very proud of the fact that I am a professional footballer.
I never doubted how I could help the team, and I never stopped working hard every day in training.
I am different as soon as I am on the pitch, because I had to fight so much and work so hard to become a professional footballer, so I have to give everything that I can.
I was born in a village where there had never been a footballer who'd made it in the major championships.
The first time I watched a World Cup game was in 2002. That was the first time Senegal had ever qualified for the World Cup, and it was great moment that I will never forget in my life. I was ten years old at the time, and that experience of watching my country in a World Cup is what inspired me to become a footballer.
A good thing for footballers is not to think too much, especially when you've got to move to a big team like Liverpool, because that's when you start to confuse your mind.
The best thing you can do is remember your home town.
There was interest from a lot of clubs, not just Manchester United, but as soon as I knew Liverpool were interested, I just felt it was the right club with the right coach. It was right for me to come here.
Diouf was one of the best players in the whole history of Senegal. He did a lot for the national team, and everybody knows and respects him for that.
The wrong team wanted me, by the way - of course United. I spoke with Van Gaal, and they even made an offer, but for me, it was not the right club and not the right moment.
When you see the rival make a certain pass, you don't need to look behind you. You know 100 per cent that all your teammates will go with you.
It's the rival that gives you the tempo depending on who is on the ball or who a pass is played to. That is the little secret.
I've kept all of my shirts that wore in the World Cup games, and I'll be giving them to my family to keep.
When I was in school, we would always have running races. I was good at it. Always sprinting. I can run long distance, too.
