I feel I have been very lucky. When you are growing up, you have dreams of being a footballer, perhaps even playing for the club you support, and I am living that dream.
— Trent Alexander-Arnold
You have to go out there and focus on yourself and not who you are up against.
I was probably 13 or 14 when I realised I had a chance to make it. That's when I realised that a bit of education had to be sacrificed in order to become a footballer.
Every defeat hurts.
It's something you dream of. It's very special to play in the Merseyside derby and, especially, win.
As long as possible, I want to have that relationship with Liverpool, to be a Liverpool player. To say I have done that for the whole of my career is something I have dreamed of being able to say.
It's just about keeping the momentum going, and it doesn't matter whether it's Champions League or Premier League or whatever trophy you're going for, you've got to focus on the opponent that lies ahead.
With Ronaldo being one of the greats, probably one of the best players ever, it's going to be an honour to hopefully play against him.
There's something special about the Champions Leagu,e and it's always been a dream to play in that competition.
You've got to beat the best if you want to be the best.
To beat City twice is no easy feat.
I try not to pay too much respect to the players I am playing against.
I started playing football with my mates and my brothers, in the playground or the park or the front garden. It was just about enjoying it, having a good time playing. I wanted to play all the time.
As long as everyone does their part - the attackers score the goals, and the defenders keep the clean sheets - then you can't go too wrong.
If you take your foot off the gas, there's always someone who wants your spot.
To play for Liverpool is the dream, the aim, and I can't see it changing to be fair.
No matter what the competition is, we're not going to take it easy. We're going to fight for it and try and win as much silverware as we can.
I think I'm always willing to learn and listen to the coaches and the manager and listen to the advice of the players in the team as well, so whenever I get the advice, I try to take it on board and just try to help myself get better.
In a knockout tournament, it is not really about your own performance - it is about the team.
That is probably the best thing to do: look back on the harder games you've had, the tougher games, learn what I didn't do well and what I could have done better.
To be a Premier League player is something that not everyone can say; even some of the best players in the world can't say that!
I always supported Liverpool. My whole family did!
Liverpool are special.
The best chance we have of being successful is to not slip up and keep working hard to get three points on the board.
Obviously, it's important for any team that wants to be really successful to try to have the best players that they possibly can in all positions, and I think Alisson is definitely one of the best in the world in his position.
I want to challenge myself and test myself against the best players in the world, and there are not many people better than the likes of Ronaldo.
It's an honour every time I get the chance to go out on to the pitch, whether it be starting or as a sub, so I'm just happy to get on the pitch whenever I can.
I am happy to get the chance to play whenever I get the chance, and it is down to the manager's trust and the trust he has shown in me.
