I've played at Anfield and you can look at The Kop and there are blue pockets all over. It's another level in Glasgow.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
I think you find Liverpool fans are extremely passionate, as are Evertonians, but I think it goes to another level in Glasgow.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
You can't look into a crystal ball but what you can say is if money is put on the table and you get half your signings right then you are going to be better next time around.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
When you talk about those Liverpool greats, they had players who won everything. Some great team men, great goalscorers, longevity.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
Football is the most entertaining game in the world to watch because it's end to end with lots of things happening.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
I think if you're raising your foot high whether it's an overhead kick or not, you're risking a red card.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
When you go into the really big games you look at your team and think 'where are we weak, where are we vulnerable.'
Quote by -Graeme Souness
It's the one that the players fear. The No 1 is the ACL - the anterior cruciate ligament - closely followed by a real tear of the hamstring, because you know that's the one injury that kids you.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
Some people can get there in three or four games, some need eight or nine, but after 11 games, if you've been playing regularly, you're match-fit.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
I'm not sure about Richarlison. I like him, I liked him when he was at Watford and he started well at Everton but would his preferred position be out on the left and cutting in? I'm not sure.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
As a manager, when you can't get your first target do you go and spend on your second, third, fourth choice?
Quote by -Graeme Souness
The crowd are more understanding at Anfield than at any other football ground.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
People always have game plans to take care of Ronaldo, but very few people succeed in keeping him quiet for 90 minutes.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
When you play at home in European football, you've got to come up with a happy balance where you get on the front foot and try to win it without leaving yourself vulnerable.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
I don't think anybody is looking at Mario Balotelli and thinking 'I'm going to work as hard as him.'
Quote by -Graeme Souness
You can Google how many goals a player has scored in the last few seasons, or against this particular side, but our job is to point the viewers to something that is happening in the game that they may not have seen or thought of.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
When you're a player, you only really have to look after yourself. And then you go into management, and you've got 30 players' welfare to keep an eye on.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
I found that being top put all the pressure on second place, not first. The focus is on the second-place team, who can't afford to slip up again.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
The one thing I learnt going to Italy was there's no real change in how the game should be played, but how players look after themselves.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
Don't get me wrong, growing up in Edinburgh, I was all too familiar with the Hibs and Hearts rivalry. My father grew up in Leith - Hibee territory - just off of Easter Road on Albert Street.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
You can talk about systems until you're blue in the face but that's secondary - if you're closing down, if you're first to the ball, it doesn't really matter what system you've got.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
If you're going to be champions you've got to deal with the challenges that come along in many different ways.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
Kante senses dangers and knows where the ball is going to be. He has that in his DNA. Paul Pogba has more in his DNA to be up there, create.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
To play as an anchor man you have to be extremely disciplined and a lot of the time you're attracted to the ball but can't go there because if you don't get there or it breaks down there is a hole.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
If you're scoring two goals at Stamford Bridge, it tells you that you are a player.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
It's very difficult, when you're in and out of the team as a player, to get any sort of rhythm.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
You've always got 20 per cent of a dressing room that won't be happy with their manager because they want to play more often. There are players who will have been moaning all year about not being in the team, but when they got their chance they failed to take it.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
The strikers are the ones that normally go for big, big money because they're the ones who decide the games, nine times out of 10.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
Benteke is a threat when he's fit, fully motivated and firing on all cylinders.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
I think I speak for all the pundits when I say we are just giving an opinion. I am asked to give an opinion based on my experiences in football and based on what I see out on the pitch.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
If you start spending big money, what you're ultimately judged on is how your buys perform.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
Liverpool will always be the place I look back in terms of the place where I enjoyed playing, it was just unique.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
If you win the Premier League it means you have managed the difficult moments of the season better than anyone else.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
If you insist on playing Jorginho, who is neat and tidy but not a goal threat, you have to have goal threats on either side of him.
Quote by -Graeme Souness
I accept that I sometimes overstepped the mark, but I can tell you that, off the pitch, I've never been an overly aggressive person.
