All my older brothers and the rest of the family are all mad-keen Liverpool fans and always talk about the great days of the past.
Now I have fulfilled my own dream of joining the club, I believe we can seriously challenge for the title.
This club has stature, great players and tradition. There is no reason we cannot finally win the title again.
Back home in Dublin all us kids ever wanted was Liverpool track-suits and jerseys at Christmas.
Now at least I can get them for free at last! I can hardly believe I am sitting here now actually wearing a Liverpool track-suit for real.
Torres has been a revelation since he arrived in the Premier League and I am looking forward to playing alongside him.
I had a great understanding and relationship with Dimitar [Berbatov] at Spurs, and hopefully I can do just the same with Torres. But it is up to me to get into the team and work hard to prove a partnership works.
I hope myself and Fernando can have that sort of relationship and score plenty of goals.
Now it is up to me to make sure I am picked every week, I am not naive enough to think I can walk into any team. That is my challenge.
I am very excited with the prospect of playing alongside Torres. He is probably the best striker in the world.
His first season in the Premier League was fantastic, and then to go to the Euro 2008 finals and score the winner in the final just made it an even greater season for him.
It was a great year for him and hopefully with my help he can have another one just as good.
Playing Champions League football is important for me, but it is the whole package here. You don't have to sell Liverpool to me. That happened many years ago.But this club has to challenge for the title, the fans expect it. And at this stage of my career I want to have that chance, and to win more trophies and medals.
This squad can challenge for the Premier League, just look at the players the club already have. With a few more additions, which I believe will come, Liverpool can go on to win the title.
