The world can be very cruel.
I think as a central defender you grow as a player.
As a defender I try to keep clean sheets.
There are plenty of good central defenders around and I enjoy watching them.
Why make things difficult? Why have tough times when it's not necessary?
Like Koeman, Klopp knows exactly how to get the best out of me - by being critical. When the media are hyping me and being very positive, he will downplay the praise and all that - often with a wink.
You have to, you need to be hard with each other. When things aren't going right you need to tell each other, otherwise it's going to be too easy.
Just focus on doing what you love to do and play your best game. Get your qualities out of the pitch, enjoy your game and don't think about the other things.
Why be negative when you can enjoy life and be positive? That's something I learned over the years.
I just enjoying playing for Liverpool, it doesn't really matter who is standing next to me.
I hate losing, like everyone else.
The influence of social media is unbelievable. It's sad to see - it's a fake life that some people live.
As players, the only thing we can do is give everything on the pitch, and that's what the fans do for us as well.
Obviously there are a lot of expectations when you come to a club for a record fee but you can't change that. You just need to perform and show it on the pitch and gain respect through that.
The only thing I want to do is focus and get better.
You need to have dreams, you need to go for it, otherwise why would you be a footballer?
We need to look at what we have ahead of us and that is more important than looking at someone else. It is the only way forward.
We can't always play the perfect game.
There is always room for improvement in our game.
I try to read the game as well as I can.
