Despite his row with Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez this week, Xabi Alonso insists he wants to stay at Anfield.
Xabi told liverpoolfc.tv: "Of course you always want to play but also you know that, when you are playing, some of your teammates are maybe on the bench or the stands. You have to accept that it's part of your job and be professional. You have to work hard to get an opportunity and play well when you do.
"I am really happy here and relaxed. I am focused on Liverpool."
