Christ,forgot Rushie in my first list,what a dick. Had to take Fowler out to put him in. Possibly change Carra for Fowler,it's just tough.

I don't see why anyone would restrict themselves only to the players they've seen. The official site says: "we are inviting fans to vote for who they believe to be the ten greatest Liverpool players of all-time"

I've not seen Roger Hunt play, but considering he scored 286 goals in 492 games for us, and is our record league goalscorer, it would be a bit difficult to justify putting Emile Heskey (who I have seen play) ahead of Sir Roger in a list of '10 all-time greatest Liverpool players'...

 

For the record -

1. Kenny Dalglish

2. Ian Rush

3. Billy Liddell

4. Ray Clemence

5. Roger Hunt

6. Graeme Souness

7. John Barnes

8. Alan Hansen

9. Robbie Fowler

10. Emlyn Hughes

10 best I've seen. Probably much the same as everyone else of my age.

 

Dalglish

Barnes

Souness

Rush

Hansen

Nicol

Fowler

Molby

Hyypia

Alonso

Owen

 

By the way...Clemence - he was at Spurs by the time I started watching a lot of football - was he really that good?

 

PS Feck - I picked 11 and still forgot Gerrard and Carra...this game must be so much easier for Everton fans.

Ten best I've seen since 1983

 

Dalglish

Rush

Hansen

Nicol

Barnes

Gerrard

Fowler

R Jones

Hyppia

Owen

 

Not many defenders in my list but since Hansen and Nicol left, I can't remember too many that really impressed me. Of the midfielders I've seen I was tempted to put Whelan in. Didi has played well, but hasn't impresseed me as much as Whelan and McMahon did. It's too early to tell with Alonso. Personally, I think Sissoko will prove to be more important in the the long run. Owen has scored some really important goals and for all the bad press he and McManaman get now, I can't remember too many attacking players over the last 15 years that would displace them in my list of recently effective and exciting players at Anfield.

What, no place for Piechnik?

[Superjay]

What, no place for Piechnik?

 

 

I thought that but I said I'd have to stick in one of our all time great keepers, it was gonna be stengaard but i thought that might be unfair cause i'd have to put the ironing board in too.

Gary Neville

 

Seriously, the whole stand shakes everytime that ugly b*ll*x gets the ball !

[anny road]

Nearly, but not quite...

 

 

let me get this straight..Phil Neal and Sammy Lee are in your top ten ahead of Souness?

[Puskas]

Souness was second on my list, after Dalglish.

[hideNseek]

So not one person thought this guy is worth a shout?

PROFILE

The gifted successor to Ray Kennedy on the left flank of Liverpool's midfield, Whelan made a massive contribution to the club's majestic triumphs under Bob Paisley and Kenny Dalglish in the 1980's winning six League title medals, three FA Cup, a European Cup and three Milk Cup medals.

A natural footballer, Whelan was signed by Paisley from Home Farm in his native Dublin in October 1979, just after his 18th birthday. He gave a hint of things to come by scoring on his debut against Stoke in April 1981, the first of 73 goals scored for Liverpool in almost 500 senior appearances.

 

He had a talent for scoring spectacular and crucial goals, including a magnificent swerving shot that beat Manchester United at Wembley in the 1983 Milk Cup Final, the year after he scored twice at the same venue in the final of the same competition against Tottenham. As well as fierce shooting power Whelan?s lean build incorporated tigerish tackling ability.

 

Later in his Anfield career he captained Liverpool and switched inside to a central midfield role. Whelan emulated his father, Ronnie senior, by representing the Republic of Ireland, for whom he won 53 caps. He left Anfield in 1994 to manage Southend, followed by a spell in charge of Greek club Panionios and then Olympiakos

[hideNseek]

Interesting Ronnie won 13 major honours, while Barnes, Molby, Lee, McMahon btw won only 22.

[fred milne]

So not one person thought this guy is worth a shout?

I guess the problem is that there's so many to choose from. I'd certainly put ahead Whelan ahead of the likes of Lee, McMahon and Molby though.

 

Dalglish

Liddell

Barnes

Keegan

Gerrard

Rush

Callaghan

Clemence

Hughes

Souness

That's as good a selection as any.

[Snookie]

Heighway - the reason i love LFC

Dalglish - the best player i have ever seen play for LFC

Rush - The best striker i have seen play in the UK

Souness - c*** of the highest order but our c***

Hansen - that good he makes me forget about those M&S ads

Lawerson - with Hansen the best partnership to play in the English game

Liddell - the best player i never saw

Barnes - Magical at times

Nichol - the perfect team player

Alonso - the only current player who would improve any of the previous great teams

[fred milne]

Take Keegan out and put Ronnie in and it would be the best so far.

Whelan is one of my favourites too but you can't take Keegan out.

[Billy Dane]

1. Souness

2. Dalglish

3. Rush

4. Liddell

5. Barnes

6. Callaghan

7. Keegan

8. Hansen

9. Clemence

10. (Sir) Roger Hunt

 

Shame there is no place for Peter Thompson, Peter Beardsley, Tommy Smith, Chris Lawler, Ron Yeats, Steve Gerrard etc etc! very difficult.
