Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso insists he has no regrets over a failed move to Juventus in the summer.
"Juventus was interested in me last summer. They also came to Liverpool, but this was normal negotiations during the summer. Some clubs seeking players, others will listen to offers. In the final analysis, nothing has happened," shrugged Xabi.
"I do not place much importance on the negotiations."
Asked about Juve coach Claudio Ranieri's claims that he was too slow to play in Turin, Xabi laughed: "No problem, I respect his opinion. But I have great confidence in my quality, thanks to the way I'm playing for Liverpool and Spain.
"I do not think I'll ever be the fastest player in a team, but I have other qualities, most important for my role on the field."
