My debut was all a bit of a whirlwind.

When Hull came calling it was a great, great move for me and when I went there I managed to get some goals and assists and get a senior Wales call-up.

Every Liverpool fan and Liverpool player wants to go to Old Trafford and win every time we go there.

I think playing in front of crowds and in a competitive league, getting a feel for the senior dressing room where there's points up for grabs every week and players are fighting for their futures helps.

My first loan spell I was 18. I went to Crewe, and I felt I'd scored all these goals for Liverpool's youth teams and I'd go to League One and it would be the same. I quickly found out that it wasn't. It took me to come back, captain the U23 side for a year and a half to really get my confidence back.

Going out to France three years ago to watch Euro 2016 was massive and when I was there, stood in the crowd, I wanted to be part of that as a player.

I knew I wanted to play for Wales from an early age.

Even if the team is not doing well and I can still pop up with a goal or an assist, then I'm making a difference.

Numbers have always been massive to me. I was told at an early age that if you affect the game, and if your numbers are good in terms of goals, assists, chances created, the manager finds it hard to bring you off or to not involve you.

I learned that in senior football it's about managing the game. People are playing for contracts and playing for careers, so when you're 1-0 up or 2-0 up, you have to see the game out.
