The Spanish striker has been linked with the Reds in recent weeks, after rumours that he is unsettled at Barcelona, but he insists he is happy.
'I feel important, and even more so when the manager speaks well of me,' he said.
'I've always had the affection of team-mates and especially the public. I noticed it since the day I arrived. So it’s not vital that I score.
'I don’t give any importance to what is said outside the club. I don’t have to be worried about all of this, it’s all the same to me. I work so that the manager, my colleagues, the fans and my family are happy, and that’s the case.'
