Berger on his way out

Last updated : 29 January 2003 By Kevin Smith
The Czech midfielder has been out of favour for some time and has been unable to agree a new contract.

Berger has only made three first team appearances this season and had been linked with a possible move to Celtic last year.

"I was fit at the beginning of the season but I wasn't playing," he said. "I don't think I'll be playing anymore for the first team now.

"There is no point in staying here. I want to play football. I can't say my Liverpool career has been great. Nor can I say it has been bad. I've had good times, I've had bad times.

"There is not a player left from when I came. I thought players like Robbie Fowler and Steve McManaman would stay at Liverpool forever.

"Actually I have been through everything since I have been at Liverpool. Whatever you can experience, I have experienced,"
