🟢🚨 Federico Chiesa: “I want to play regularly, if I don't find continuity in Premier League I have to look elsewhere”.
“The first year of Liverpool I practically didn't play… I'm going to pre season tour in the USA, then I'll talk to the club and the new coach Iraola and we'll see”, told Gazzetta.

Cody Gakpo:
“A shame that the manager has been sacked. Especially so soon after the season where we had fought to qualify for the Champions League. But yes, that… I believe the club released a statement about that with the explanation in it. I don’t think anyone, any of the players saw it coming. It certainly happened, but apart from that, I think many of our players at the club are also working towards the World Cup now. We have to put it to the side. I had of course sent him a message to thank him for the past two years and of course with the highlight of last season.”

Andoni Iraola’s message to Liverpool fans:
“I cannot ask them for a lot. I know how they are. I can only say that I want to become one more of you. I want to earn the right to be one of you, so we can enjoy all together.”
Andoni Iraola:
“I want to get ready. Also with the World Cup being there, we will have a chance to work with especially with some of the young players, because a lot of senior players are out and arriving later because of the World Cup. I think it gives us the chance to know better the players from the Academy, some of the players that have been on loan, they will be important for the first part of pre-season, the American tour. I think it works very well for us, it gives us a lot of information before we take really decisions, before we start the season.”

Andoni Iraola on Anfield:
“I’ve been the other side – I still remember the goal [Federico] Chiesa scored at the end of the first game of the season!
“We were there with 2-2 thinking that probably we could take something. He scored and the place erupted. It was crazy, no? I want now to feel this from the other side.
“At the beginning when you arrive at any club, I think you need to kind of prove a little bit yourself. You need to earn the right also to belong. I want to do this as quickly as possible so I can also celebrate with them and I can be part properly of those celebrations.
“For me, football is about emotions. About passion.
“I’m quite cool-headed probably, during my life quite rational, I would say. But it’s true that when the game starts, when you have to celebrate a goal, something is inside, no?
“I think this inner energy, you need it as a player, you need it as a supporter, you need it as a coach. No better place than Anfield.”
Iraola in his first interview saying he's excited about senior players being at the World Cup because it means he gets a chance to work with the young players at the start of pre-season. I love him already.
