“I wasn’t fearing coming here. I looked at coming to Liverpool as an honour and a privilege to represent this club. It wasn’t a fear,” insisted the Scot.
“If I had any doubts, I could have sat at Blackpool for four or five years.
“I wanted to come here and play at this level. It was a no-brainer. While other clubs are big clubs, Liverpool is one of the biggest clubs in the world."
“Maybe the first couple of weeks you are overawed a little bit with the quality of the players here."
"At the end of the day I had only played in the Premier League for one season and you come up against people like Stevie, Dirk, Luis - established, top-class players.
“Now though, they are team-mates. That is how I look at it."
"There has been a rapid rise in my career since I left Rangers, but I have always aimed for an opportunity to play regularly for a club of this stature, and I want to continue doing that” added Charlie.
