The agent is there to get the best deal for the player, when a big club buys, they are trying to get the best deal for the club. So really, I don't think you can blame the agent, if the agent is doing the best job for his clients.

I've done my coaching badges, I've got my Pro Licence, but I enjoy what I'm doing now. I'm also the elite performance director of the Welsh FA. The main thing for me was always Liverpool Football Club and my country, Wales - and I'm lucky enough to still be involved with both of them.

I realised I'd been spoiled at Liverpool. We were used to winning. In Italy I grew up as a person. I didn't enjoy the football, mind.

Off the pitch, I learned about what to eat and what to drink to be successful, and I learned about life.
