Just a few months after the high of winning the double you suffered the low of breaking your leg against Southampton, was this the beginning of the end for you at Liverpool?
"Yes, I suppose it was. We'd played Everton in the ScreenSport Super Cup in midweek and I wasn't involved but I was on the bench for the game at The Dell, came on and broke my leg! I think it was almost two years to the day before I got back into the first team. By this time the team had evolved and it was clear there was no future for me at Anfield. It was no-one's fault. That was life and I just had to get on with it. To be honest, I was just happy to be playing again because there was a time when I thought I might career may have been over."
