So I didn't think I was a Liverpool-type player.
But fortunately, I had six years at Watford, which meant that they had looked at me for six years.
You were probably quite unusual for them to get it straight away.
Robbo had six years at West Brom.
Peter Barrett had six years at Newcastle.
They looked at you to say, can you play with a level of consistency over a period of time before you come to a big club?
Rather than now, one good season, you cost £50 million, you see the inconsistency.
So when I came to Liverpool...
I played up front a couple of times against Liverpool, and of course, you would know this, with Marcus Rashford and everybody, we're wide players, but everyone wants to be a centre-forward, don't they?
Because we like it.
Until they start getting kicked, then all of a sudden they don't want to do that.
But I played up front against Liverpool, and when I signed, Rushie's gone.
I've come to replace Rushie.
It was going to be me and Aldo.
And one week later, they signed Peter Birtley.
And I'm thinking, well, where am I going to play?

I said, but you don't play with Winger.
He'll go, you'll work it out.
to work it out.
