Luis Suarez admits the passion of Liverpool's fans still continues to surprise him two years into his Anfield career and insists: 'I'm living out my dreams.'
The Uruguay striker has established himself as an idol to Reds fans since joining the club from Ajax in January 2011.
It's a feeling that's very mutual for Suarez.
He said: "It's something I'm used to now but somehow it continues to surprise me. When I hear ['You'll Never Walk Alone'] on the pitch or even in the dressing room it still gives me goosebumps. It is incredible and even more so in the stadium when the people become emotional and show their passion.
"The world stops and everyone sings with their scarves up and it's such a feeling and such a motivation to play for this club. I'm very happy here and my family love the life here too. I want to enjoy being at this club where I, like all the kids, dreamed of playing and now I'm fulfilling that dream."
Suarez is currently enjoying his most prolific season as a Liverpool player having plundered 22 goals in 33 appearances so far in 2012-13.
The 26-year-old admits he's delighted with the way the Reds are progressing under Brendan Rodgers and is confident they can mount a strong challenge for a top-four finish over the remainder of the campaign.
"I'm very pleased and very happy because Liverpool is growing," added Suarez. "It's not the team that it once was as they have had a dip. But now we have a new coach who has a philosophy of the game with which the players are very happy.
"The only thing missing is to have more positive results so we can finish in a Champions League spot. We showed we can match anyone - we had chances to win many of those matches. If we go into every game in the Premier League with the same intensity that we've shown in the big matches we can be much higher in the table."
