Djibril Cisse would like the season to have a bit longer to go. Improving with each game, Cisse has done fantastically well to come back from the horrific injury he received early in the season.

He said:

"It feels fantastic just to be involved in the big games we have at the moment. I came to Liverpool for the kind of excitement we are experiencing now," he said.

"I just wish the season wouldn't end because I am really enjoying myself.

"It was tough being in the dressing room and watching the lads prepare for the Carling Cup final and the other big games this season but I just had to get on with it.

"Working hard in the gym was great for getting rid of my frustrations. My fitness is coming back slowly and I am trying to find the level I had before.

"My speed is not totally back yet either but that is natural because I have been out for so long. It is just a matter of time - and I wish I had a bit more of that."
