Babel discusses unfinished business in England

Ryan Babel has said he has unfinished business to take care of in England.

The player is happy to be back in the league for starters. “It feels good to be back in the Premier League. It’s surprising, I know that, even for me it’s still surprising but I had a good think about it and I was up for the challenge. It went so fast, Fulham called my agent and I had to think about it very quickly, if I was still ok and fit enough for the Premier League. I know at this point my career is only a few years down the road and I want to enjoy as much football as possible so that’s why I made the decision.”

When asked about his time at Liverpool, he said he had unfinished business.

“Yeah, I would. That’s one of the decisions I’m talking about – maybe I shouldn’t have come to England at that time, I was pretty young and not really fully outgrown from the Dutch league when I joined Liverpool [at the age of 20 in 2007]. Perhaps a couple more years in Holland would have been good for me.”

“Joining Liverpool at that time was the first time living outside my country, my parents’ home even, and it was a whole different world for me. A lot of things came on my plate straight away, I had to grow up very fast, but fans and people don’t give you that time, they want you to perform and if you don’t, it’s time for another player. Most people say I didn’t fulfil my potential at Liverpool so it is unfinished business.”
