He told
Liverpoolfc.tv: "If I wasn't happy here then I wouldn't have signed a new contract. It's as simple as that."
"The story said that I wasn't happy at
Liverpool and that I was going to speak with David Moyes about going to
Everton. It's just not true."
"Of course I'm never happy when I'm not in the team but that's just a personal opinion and it doesn't mean I want to leave. I imagine every player is the same."
"This season has been a good one for me and I feel like I have kicked on from last year. I broke through into the team last season but then I didn't do myself justice and that disappointed me. I worked hard in the summer to get to the level I wanted to be at and now I feel I'm doing okay."
