When I started, I was a striker for the first few months. Our goalkeeper didn't show up once, and the team was asked who wanted to fill in for him. No-one really wanted to, but I thought it would be an interesting challenge, so I agreed to do it.

I choose to be a goalkeeper.

As a goalkeeper, you have games where you're really exhausted afterwards, even though you didn't run as much.

Loris Karius

If you have the number one shirt, and you don't play any games, it doesn't really help you.

Ibrahimovic is certainly a great player, but during a match, I don't waste any thoughts on who is opposing me, and you never have any fears on the pitch.

Loris Karius

I always try to be there when the team needs me.

Loris Karius

I want to be in goal and play for Liverpool every week and then win a trophy with the club. That's what everyone wants. I want to do my part and help.

Loris Karius

It's good to have competition and good for the club to have three strong goalkeepers.

Loris Karius

I know I am a good goalkeeper, and I've shown that a lot.

Loris Karius

I have to cause a stir in Liverpool and do my job really well. If I achieve that, then - and that's what I hope - I will one day get the call from Bundestrainer Joachim Low.

Loris Karius

My father didn't watch football, and it was my grandad who got me in to it.

Loris Karius

It definitely helps when you play regularly instead of coming in and out of the team.

Loris Karius

Goalkeepers don't get second chances, but also, we can win games and be praised, so that's the way it is.

Loris Karius

I have no problem with Jurgen Klopp. In fact we have a great relationship, he transferred me from Mainz.

Loris Karius

It is always a battle; it doesn't matter in which club or which position. If you don't perform well, even when you start, you might lose your spot in any position.

Loris Karius

I'm not a keeper who hasn't shown his ability.

Loris Karius

Every goalkeeper has a different way of playing. Some will take risks to help the team - coming for high balls, being prepared to be attacked in the box knowing there is not much protection from the referees - but that might mean they make more mistakes. Some try to be safer to avoid those situations, but it does not help the team.

Loris Karius

I don't think a lot of players reach a Champions League final. If you look at how many goalkeepers in the league reach a Champions League final, I don't know.

Loris Karius

We have many good keepers in Germany, and that's why you can never let your form dip.

Loris Karius

I think it's important to make the simple things right: the easy saves, the catches, commanding the box. On top of that, if you make a super save, then that's great. It's the main base as a goalkeeper.

Loris Karius

When a striker misses a chance, people say he should have scored, but five minutes later, they don't talk about it anymore.
