I understand that we're paid a lot of money and we're in the limelight. When things don't go well, there's deserved criticism.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
At the end of a career you're desperate more than ever for medals, grabbing as much as you can as you go.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
I've played for Liverpool's first-team pretty much every week for 16 years.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
Players like people saying good things about them and, of course, no one is ever wrong when they do that, but they always are when they say bad stuff.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
I'm not massively into the screamers, because I think sometimes fellas just hit it and there's an element of luck over whether it flies into the top corner or over the bar.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
Well, when I wasn't playing with a football I used to play with 'Star Wars' figures as a kid. Hanging out with Chewbacca and Luke Skywalker is how I passed the time when I wasn't kicking a ball around.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
For a 20-year-old kid to be taking on Liverpool Football Club over a contract. To the pit of my stomach that just winds me up, it angers me.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
As one of the lucky ones who could provide for my family, I also wanted to help those from my area.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
I always think when you're in the Champions League, as a player, as a fan now, you're in that to come up against the biggest teams and the biggest names - that's what you want.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
There is pressure, and I would never complain about that, but as players we put pressure on ourselves all the time. That's one thing I won't miss when I finally stop playing.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
People go on about how much players earn in the Premier League but once you've bought a nice house and car, what else is there to spend it on?
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
In the past, you would have been classed as a sweeper if you were put in the middle of a three-man defence.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
Managers can make themselves look strong by selling or dropping players, but if the move doesn't work, the choice looks flawed.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
The two managers I worked under longest are Gerard Houllier and Rafa Benitez. I have so much respect for the two of them.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
If you'd asked me at the start of my career I would have said I was going to be a manager. I may still be in future, but there seemed to be an expectation it was a natural progression for me.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
I always thought just because I love football, it doesn't necessarily mean I'm desperate to manage.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
When Robben joined Chelsea in 2004 nobody realised how good he was. He was seen as an excellent player rather than a world-class one, and he suffered a lot with injuries. In the years since, he has elevated his game.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
Without Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo, we would discuss Robben more often and with more appreciation.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
Robben is truly world class, proving himself at the highest level in England, Spain, Germany and on the international stage.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
If I'm reading a book by a footballer I don't want to read about games, how he scored or played well. People want to read what you thought, not what happened.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
There's one thing I've never seen in a paper. Jamie Carragher linked with this or that club.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
We have all come to agree the modern players cannot be one-trick ponies, and we are especially critical of those who do not consistently produce in the biggest games.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
The reason Ozil has as many detractors as supporters is he is a bit of an anomaly - an elegant, skilful footballer who at his best evokes memories of the great number 10s from the past, but sometimes looks unsuited to the extra demands of a changing game at the very top.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
The top coaches want wide strikers who cut inside. They want playmaking midfielders who can play between the lines as well as perform their defensive duties.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
Has there ever been a Premier League star splitting opinion more than Mesut Ozil?
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
I've seen plenty of young lads elevated into the senior squad acting like they have made it.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
For the life of me, I'll never understand why the teams that have the best defences get criticised. Shouldn't clean sheets be a badge of honour for defenders and goalkeepers?
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
I was an Evertonian as a kid, but I've never hated Man United. I've always had respect for them.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso was always bemused by our enthusiasm for tackling, because he saw it as the last resort.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
I want to be a manager, it wouldn't scare me, but I also think you could be sacked in six months and you'd have to take the kids back to school with your tail between your legs.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
Playing for England is a bonus, but playing for Liverpool is what I want to do.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
In the modern era, with the rewards the top players have during their career and the risks involved moving into management, more will look at it and say they don't need it.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
We talk about the Arsenal 'Invincibles' of 2004 and the team who won the Double two years earlier and drool over their attacking play. It is easy to forget, though, that virtually the same squad had won nothing for three years.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
If you want trophies, they don't get given to you, you have to earn them, you have to play well in big games.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
I've been in the position where Liverpool needed to win on the last day to reach the Champions League. In May 2000, we needed to beat Bradford, who were fighting to avoid relegation, at Valley Parade but lost an awful game 1-0.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
I think with my generation, your first game of senior football was often a Sunday League game of football. Sometimes you're playing on pitches that aren't great, you've no referee, you've no goal nets.
Quote by -Jamie Carragher
People make relegation out to be a fate worse than death but that's nonsense. If the infrastructure is right, clubs can bounce back.
