DUDEK: I HOPE I'VE DONE ENOUGH
Paul Eaton 16 February 2006
Jerzy Dudek is hoping he's done enough to keep his place in the Liverpool goal for this weekend's FA Cup clash with Manchester United.

Dudek has started the last three matches for the Reds in place of the suspended Pepe Reina, but the Spanish goalkeeper has now served his ban and is available for selection against Alex Ferguson's men.
Dudek kept two clean sheets in his three game run and is now keeping his fingers crossed that manager Rafael Benitez will give him an extended spell in the team.
But even if he loses his place this weekend, the Polish international has vowed to keep working hard to ensure he's ready whenever his next chance comes along.
Speaking to Liverpoolfc.tv at Melwood, Dudek said: "I always do my best and I hope I've done enough in the last three games to keep my place. We'll see at the weekend.
"My aim is always to play as well as I can and then leave the decision in the hands of the manager. I will accept whatever decision he makes because I am a professional and I play for Liverpool, not myself. Sometimes it is difficult when you don't play but as a footballer you have to sacrifice yourself for the team and my only thought is for the club. Whenever I get a chance I want to take it. If I've impressed enough to keep my place ahead of Pepe this weekend then great, but if not I'll keep working hard to make sure I'm ready for next time.
"Games against Manchester United are always big ones for players to play in and I'm sure it's going to be a great game on Saturday. It hurt losing to them in the last minute at Old Trafford last month so hopefully we can make amends this time.
"I think everyone at the club has a clear idea and a clear target for the season. It's not about making the most appearances or playing the most matches, it's about doing everything we can to finish second in the league. I don't think we can catch Chelsea now, but we can end the season in second place and that's what we have to aim for.
"The win over Arsenal on Tuesday was big for us. I did think it wasn't going to be our night because we had so many chances but couldn't score. Lehmann showed his quality with some great saves but eventually we got the goal.
"Arsenal are always a dangerous side to play against but we played very well and deserved the win."
Dudek admits he was keen to leave Anfield during last month's January transfer window to play regular football ahead of the World Cup finals in Germany.
But a chat with Rafael Benitez convinced him Anfield remained the best place for him to prepare for this summer's showpiece sporting event.
He added: "In January I was keen to go on loan somewhere because I felt I needed to be playing before the World Cup. I spoke with the manager about the situation and he told me he wanted me to stay because I would get games here.
"I told him that a World Cup is a dream for any footballer and that it would be difficult for me if I wasn't playing regularly for my club. He said that, as well as playing some games here, I'd get the chance to show my quality in the training camp before the competition starts and that's a fair point. I'll be going there fresh whereas at my last World Cup I had just finished a 60 game season and wasn't able to perform as well as I wanted.
"I want to play well for Liverpool whenever I get chances over the rest of the season and then I want to play well for my country in the summer. It's going to be a big year and hopefully a successful one."
