    soccer am - alonso on his team mates

    Team mates - Alonso
    Last updated: 04th October 2008

    Each week Soccer AM asks players to dish the dirt on their team mates.



    This week it's the turn of Liverpool and Spain midfielder Xabi Alonso.


    The Kop favourite was rumoured to be heading for the exit door at Anfield this summer, but stayed at the club after to the delight of all the supporters.


    He took time out this week to tell us what his fellow players are really like behind the scenes...


    BEST TRAINER
    The best trainer is Sami Hyypia. He's 35 but he still trains better than those come up from the reserves.

    WORST TRAINER
    The worst trainer has to be Jermaine Pennant. He doesn't even lace his boots when he trains so he can't train very well!

    QUICKEST PLAYER
    I think that is Fernando Torres right now.

    SLOWEST PLAYER
    To be honest I have to be one of the slowest for sure, so I'm pretty sure it's me!

    BIGGEST MOANER
    Definitely Carra (Jamie Carragher) he's the one that's always right.

    HARD MAN
    We have a few hard men but the hardest is probably Martin Skrtel.

    MOST SKILFUL
    We're not a particularly skilful team, but maybe Ryan Babel; he's got some great skills.

    LEAST INTELLIGENT
    Dirk Kuyt, he's the thickest one!

    WORST TASTE IN MUSIC
    In my opinion it would be Ryan Babel. He listens to some Dutch rap which I don't really fancy.

    WORST DRESS SENSE
    I would say Carra, he tries hard but he just doesn't get it.

    BEST DANCER
    It was Crouchie (Peter Crouch), but now it's between Pepe Reina and Pennant.

    AND... WHO'S THE LONGEST IN THE SHOWER
    Pepe Reina... definitely.


    its interesting how he says that ryan babel is our most skillful player.

    ahem ...
    "Sky and Setanta have the right to choose their games and it will be the same for everyone. So Mr Ferguson will not be complaining about fixtures and a campaign against United.

    "Or there is another option. That Mr Ferguson organises the fixtures in his office and sends it to us and everyone will know and cannot complain. That is simple."

        Judging by the rest of the quote he is clearly talking about tricks and the like and Babel always does appear to have that in his locker. The problem is getting him to use that well in game situations.

                I'd say he is spot on. We are not particularly skillful.

                    Passing at pace and movement is a skill.

                    As for skilful players we have Gerrard, Riera, Torres, Leiva, Babel etc ... I bet you'll see the team 'express themselves' more as we gain confidence.

                    As I said, passing and moving at pace is a skill in itself and we're very good at that. Our first goal last night was magnificent.

                          I would say tricks wise, Riera is pretty special and Babel can throw a mean dummy or nutmeg.
