Ex-Liverpool attacker Babel hoping to remind Premier League fans who he is with Ajax

Former Liverpool attacker Ryan Babel aims to remind fans of who he is tonight as he turns out for Ajax in the Champions League against Manchester City.

The Dutchman signed for Ajax in the summer.

"I don't think people in England ever saw the best of me," he said. "For a player to really be at his best you have to give him a certain confidence, but I did not feel appreciated by some people at Liverpool.

"Ajax have given me a chance again to prove myself and I'm happy for that.

"The City game is a good platform for me to show the people who doubt Ryan Babel what I can do."
