Agger eager to impress

Agger eager to impress

07 October 2008 - 19:43

Liverpool defender Daniel Agger has insisted he will be ready to play if called upon, in light of the horror injury sustained to Martin Skrtel at the weekend.

  • Chelsea want to sign Alejandro Garnacho for £30m?
  • Chelsea agree deal to sign wonderkid for €40m

  • “Of course I hope to get some playing time, but this was not exactly the way I wished to get it. I know Martin very well because I share a room with him when we travel,” said the former Brondby defender, who has been with the Merseyside club since 2006.



    “I hope to get my chance and then I will prove that it’s my place. On the other hand, it might as well be Jamie Carragher’s place because I don’t know why people only say it is me or Skrtel who are fighting each other for a place in the team,” he continued.



    “I have had to be patient this season and wait for my chance, I know how things are.



    “The team have been playing really well and the results have been great, so I couldn’t really expect the manager to make too many changes.



    “The only thing for me to do was get my head down and concentrate on getting as fit as possible, so that if an opportunity came along, I was ready to take it.



    “When you have been out injured for 10 months, you know you are going to have to work really hard to get back into shape. That’s why I have been putting extra sessions in at Melwood this season."
