"I haven't played as much as I would have liked so far this season, so it's understandable that I am a little bit disappointed with how things have gone up to now," he said.
"But I'm happy at Liverpool. I love the club and I am still very much enjoying myself here. Being at this club is a great footballing experience for me.
"I want to prove to people that I am a very good player and that I can be a big success here. Hopefully I will enjoy being a Liverpool player for a long time to come.
"I will have a talk with Rafael Benitez about his plans. I would love the manager to say that he wants me to stay at Liverpool. That's the answer I'm looking for."
