Liverpool veteran Jamie Carragher is determined to make the most of the remaining months of his career after announcing his retirement plans.

Carragher, who has won every major honour with Liverpool - the highlight being the Champions League in 2005 - except the league title, insists he will not allow himself to start looking back just yet.

"It has been a privilege and an honour to represent this great club for as long as I have and I am immensely proud to have done so and thankful for all the support I have had," he said.

"There are many memories I want to share and people to thank, but now is not the time for that."
