00:00He's been, I think, a tremendous player, such a great player for Liverpool for so many years.
00:30You see him during the game, and he's outstanding during the game, but he has such a big impact in training sessions as well.
00:39He's the focal leader of this team. Every time we start an exercise, he's on top of his teammates and he leads by example.
00:47You don't find defenders like him that often. The elegance he plays with, you very rarely see him sprint and he seems to be back to his best.
01:17He's just been immense. I think his stature, his composure, his calmness just kind of soothes the whole backline, if not the whole team, and if not the whole crowd as well.
01:30He's a leader, he's a big presence, he's one of the best centre-backs in European football.
01:35So he's had a hell of a career and he doesn't look like he's slowing down even at the age he's at now, so I'm a big admirer of him.
01:47You may think, okay, well, he's playing at Liverpool, he doesn't have to defend as much.
01:58But when you see him, when you actually watch him, he's constantly talking, he's constantly looking, he's constantly organising.
02:06And that's a sign of a great leader.
02:08He's been with the lows, he's been with the highs, he's gone neck to neck with City for two or three years, then they had a dip.
02:15Then he's come back, then it's a free title race, he's done it all.
02:28Similar as tonight a little bit, you know, I think we've faced in a team as well, very informed.
02:33A striker like today was informed as well, so we have to be spotted.
