New deal for Skrtel
Martin Skrtel has signed a new contract. The Slovakian defender has signed a new four year deal that keeps him at Liverpool until 2014. "I'm very pleased. I have been at Liverpool for nearly three years and I really like it here. I like the city, I like the club and I like the fans so I'm happy I am able to sign a new contract," said Skrtel. "Liverpool is one of the biggest clubs in the world so I am proud I can play here for four more years. "Before I came here a lot of people thought I wasn''t good enough to play for Liverpool, but I think I have shown I am. "I'm happy to try and carry on giving good performances and doing my best for the club. Signing a new contract gives me confidence and I will work hard in training every day to play as many games as possible. You can always improve. I know the good and bad parts of my game and I will keep working. "Lots of things have changed at the club this year with new players, a new manager and new medical staff. The spirit is very good and we showed that against Arsenal with a great performance. We can build on that and carry it on. "We have quality in the dressing room and I know we will do better this year. A club like Liverpool deserves to win trophies and I will help them do that, hopefully this season. "Everyone plays football to win trophies. Playing for Liverpool is a big motivation for everyone and we will do everything we can to win the Premier League. We have the highest targets - to win everything."
