I am my own biggest critic.

If you are fighting at the top in the Premier League then you cannot do that with a dodgy goalkeeper. It is not possible.
Every single game you play you learn as a keeper and become a better keeper.
As a goalkeeper if you concede two goals at the end of the game you never can be happy.
When you play for Liverpool Football Club, who have won so many trophies both domestically and on the continent, you always have to believe that you can go all the way.
Every day in training, we will try to work to keep improving the things we can do and maintaining the levels we're at.
I don't want to be a number two, that's clear. I want to play.
You always look for certain things you can do better and what went wrong.
It's only natural that players will want to show a new manager what he can do.
Liverpool stands for unity, Liverpool stands for 'all together.'
Hairbond is a high quality product that I have been using for quite some time now and I am very happy to represent Hairbond product range in the future as their brand ambassador.
Especially for the goalkeeper, you have to feel the confidence of every staff member and the team.
Every time you concede a goal, you don't have to put a hammer to your head.
Organising the defence is something that is very important and I try to do my best every single day in training to make sure the lads get the information they need.
The mental aspect of being a goalkeeper is very important so you have to go into the game with full concentration and confidence. That is a big part of your game and the Premier League is the most demanding league for any goalkeeper.
A lot of people who were studying with me turned out to be journalists or worked in big institutions.
I will never give up fighting firstly because that's not in my character, to just give up.
As a goalkeeper, you are only remembered for your last game.
The only thing I can do is work hard.
To be the first Belgian to play for Liverpool is a big thing.
I just try to stay as focused as I always am, relax and make sure I can help the team out whenever I can.
There are always people you can turn to for help and advice. Former coaches, people I used to play with in Belgium and in England. It is good to have people you can look to for support, but in the end you are out on the pitch on your own and you have to come through it for yourself.
You have to look at yourself and make sure you give your best in training and in your performances. That is what I will keep doing.
I turned goalkeeper. My father had been one and we had a goal in the back garden. He'd taught me a bit about it so I thought I'd give it a go. I didn't really know whether it was going to be a good choice or a bad one but I joined a small local team as a keeper and it turned out to be a really good decision.
It is always better to have a good unit than being reliant on one or two players.
When you're by yourself you have to sort out everything like the shopping and looking after the house.
Sometimes in England, people look down at the Europa League, but being from the continent, I've always realised what an important competition it is.
When you are in a good frame of mind then the performance is going to be better.
In the Premier League you need creative players to open games up.
I think Eden has the qualities and talent to play in England. On his day, he can make the difference for his team.
Whether I play or not, nothing will change my preparation.
It is not in my character to not give 100 percent.
Momentum is an amazing thing when it is working in your favour.
You get a good win, you take extra confidence into the next game and it shows in the result. You end up with a snowball effect. You are in a rhythm where everything is going well. But, if you start losing games, one thing can lead to another in a bad way and, if you begin to believe nothing is going for you, it can be dangerous.
The only thing I can do is show on the pitch what I'm capable of.
I don't have to prove anything.
Competition can only make you as an individual better and let you perform better, it can only be a positive thing.
Not all things always go your way and you have to accept that. That's what you are going to get as a footballer.
I just try to do the things I'm asked to do.
When you play at home in the Europa League, you want to win the game.
You always want to progress.
I don't think anyone on the planet doesn't get angry!
It's always important to respond after a defeat.
If you concede a goal, it can be up to seven or eight mistakes leading up to it but, obviously, as a goalkeeper you have to accept it has gone past you.
If you are objective enough to say: 'I could have done this, this and that's,' all the other critics and all the other voices are really not important and don't exist anymore.
Nobody's perfect and nobody is without mistakes. The only thing you have to make sure of is you keep improving.
I always prepare myself in the same manner and when the opportunity comes along you have to grasp it.
I'm really pleased to have signed with Activate Management and am really looking forward to exploring my commercial opportunities with them around the world.
The European nights at Anfield are brilliant.
If you come away with a 1-1 result, that's obviously a disappointing feeling. You start to look at what you could have done better.
