Ryan Babel says he is happy at Liverpool. The Dutchman says he is settled at Anfield, especially with the arrival of Roy Hodgson, and is hoping to earn a new contract. "I have one more year at the end of this season left on my contract and I would like to stay," said Babel."It has been frustrating here as a player, but it's not changed my loyalty towards the club. The club is fantastic."The club is amazing and there are still a lot of fans who believe in me so that gives me a goal. They [Hodgson and Benitez] are different. The current manager does things differently, and maybe that suits me better."When he arrived he was closer with the team, talking to players, and maybe that gives the players a boost to respond better."He's more involved day to day with the players. He does things differently. Under Rafa the assistant managers took a lot of responsibility but that is different now."I hope this country hasn't seen the best of me yet. The maximum number of games I've played in a row is four and it's difficult for any player to find consistency if you're not playing every week."
