Carra into the LFC first eleven
Monday, 31st March 2008
Jamie Carragher, the reds' current longest serving player, is set to move up one place for number of games played in all competitions for the club into our all-time first eleven, assuming he turns out against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday. This will be his 515th game for Liverpool - 75 outings ahead of his nearest current challenger, his central defensive partner Sami Hyypiä.

Jamie signed on as a pro in September 1996, and is currently contracted with the club until 2009. His 514 games to date include 355 in the Premiership, 29 in the FA Cup, 26 in the League Cup, exactly a century in European competition and two each in the World Club Championship and FA Charity Shield. In all that time he has bagged just four goals.

Carra's 515th game will draw him level with the legendary Kenny Dalglish in eleventh place in the club's all-time appearance ranking. It will only take a further nineteen reds games before the thirty-year old Bootle lad can break into the club's all-time Top 10 appearance holders, and he would then still be more than 300 games behind Ian Callaghan, who is likely to forever remain the Liverpool player who tops the appearance charts.
