Can safely say that there are no pictures of Skrtel around other than him in a kit and from interviews. I quite fancy him. Its unfortunate, really, because I need some nice Skrtel for my desktop.

My mate has a screen saver of him looking mean with the words "Skrtel's gonna get you!".

I like that idea, he would be a class signing.

Are there paparazzi in Liverpool? Apart from pictures of Gerrards and Rooneys birds I can't imagine anyone else being followed...Do we have any "OK" or "Hello" readers on here?!?

Theres not, nobody worth following.

I saw Skrtel in Tesco and he was happy as Larry.

Kuyts always walking around where I live, Doubt he will be leaving anytime soon.

Martin Skrtel has set his sights on a return to first-team action during the club's festive schedule.
The commanding centre-back has been out since October 5,
after damaging a posterior cruciate ligament injury to his right knee in Liverpool's 3-2 win over Manchester City.

However, the Reds number 37 is now on the mend and admits rehabilitation is going well.

"The injury is much better," Skrtel told Liverpoolfc.tv.

"It has been six weeks since the injury and I have stopped using the
crutches, but obviously I have work to do in order to get the
ligament back to what it was before.

"The pain when it happened was huge and I thought it was much worse
than it actually was. Once I was back in the changing room I realised
it was not as serious as I first feared.

"I was unhappy but injuries are part of football games.

"The first week or two was the worst but then I started to look
forward to doing exercises that helped me to heel and speed up the
recovery process."

As for a likely return date, the Slovakian international is still hopeful he will achieve his initial target of a run-out during the Christmas programme.

"I don't know exactly the date but the predictions were for before Christmas and I am hoping it is as soon as possible," he added.

"It has been a long time. I can't wait to start kicking a ball again
and resume full training."

Daniel Agger and Sami Hyypia have stood in for the Slovakian international in recent weeks and Skrtel is well aware that he faces a tough task to dislodge them from the team when he returns.

He said: "Daniel and Sami are excellent players and they are playing well.

"It will be difficult to get back into the team but I am working hard
and I will do my best to impress the coach and fight for my place
back."

Skrtel admits that he has been impressed with the form of the team in
his absence but feels that it is too early to start thinking of
silverware.

"Being at the top of the Premier League gives us a lot of confidence," he added.

"We are trying to win every game and hopefully our form can continue for as long as possible.

"Of course I would like to win some silverware but it's still early
and there is a long time to go until the end of the season.

"I am sad that I am not currently part of the team but I am happy that we are winning and at the end of the day it is the goal of all of us to win matches."

Doesnt sound too unhappy to me.
