Gerard Houllier Player Quotations

You have different levels of players. There's are Premier League, international and world-class levels. The world-class level is players at the peak of their career and there's only maybe 50 maximum in the whole world. Stevie moved from a Premier League player to an international player and then world class.

To me, the team is more important than any individual member of the squad, and the players have to realise that and accept that my priority is to pick a side with the best possible chance of winning each match.

Players have responsibilities, because, whether they like it or not, they are public figures. They have to be aware that the people who come to the ground spend fortunes in relation to what they earn.

We don't have any splits here. The players country is Liverpool Football Club and their language is football.

Liverpool players must play like a lion, give his all. There must be determination, commitment and resolve to be a Liverpool player.
