      Name 10 of the greatest Liverpool FC players
      Jun 18, 2007 09:04:54 am
      Liverpool over the years have had some of the great players in the world, that have put on a red shirt.

      If you had to name ten, who would they be,

      Here is a list of some of them, just to help you,

      Ron Yeats, the rock Bill built his team on,
      Roger hunt, what a goal scorer,
      Ian St. John, the best little center forward in world,
      Peter Thompson
      Ian Callaghan, what a pair of wingers to have in any team,
      Gerry Byrne, great full back, played the 1965 cup final with a broken collarbone,
      Chris Lawler, great full back,
      Tommy Smith, played anywere he was told,
      Ray Clemence, I have to say the best goal keeper,
      Terry McDermott, great in midfield,
      Phil Neal, played in the back four, great player,
      Emlyn Hughes, what a great midfield player,
      David Fairclough, supper sub, won some great matches for us,
      Graeme Souness, wow, need I say more,
      Ray Kennedy, was a good forward,we put him in midfield became a great player,
      Ian Rush, just the best in his day,
      John Aldridge, as good as Rushy,
      Alan Hansen,
      Mark Lawrenson, two of the best in the world,
      Jan Molby, another great,
      John Barns, I think the 1st black player to put on a red shirt, and what a player,
      Phil Thompson, just great,
      Kevin Keegan, what a great player, sold him for a recored £440.000,
      Kenny Dalgish, got him for a record £440.000, great player and manager as well,
      Garry McAllister, was not with us long, but still a great player,
      Michael Owen, youngest goal scorer at 17,
      Robbie Flower, because he has left us now, great player,

      These are just a few I can think of,
      Please name your top ten, they don't have to be in any order,

      Have fun with your list.

      I have been asking in work for Some time now "Who have Liverpool sighed who was world class when we signed them?" All of the people I asked struggled!!!! The only one that I can Think of was Kenny Dalgleish! For the most successful team in English History that is a bit worrying. But to the question in hand. I have chosen PAST players who are not playing anymore.
      1 Dalgleish
      2 Hughes
      3 Fowler
      4 Rush
      5 Clemence
      6 Sourness
      7 Hansen
      8 Heighway
      9 Neal
      10 Anfield

      In no order, my top 10-

      1 Kenny Dalglish
      2 Emlyn Hughes
      3 John Barnes
      4 Terry McDermott
      5 Alan Hansen
      6 Graeme Souness
      7 Ray Clemence
      8 Fowler
      9 Heighway
      10 Rush

      Ray Kennedy, Alan Kennedy and Stevie Nicol were close to inclusion!
      I'm not old enough to remember Liddle, Hunt, Stubbins or Callaghan but all these players are worthy of being in anyones selection, maybe this should be The Top 50 Great Past Liverpool players ;)

      Thank you all, I have been away for 10days, it was nice of you all for posting your lists,
       here is my list,

      1, Ron Yeats, he was the rock Bill stared to build his team on, played very well and was part of the back room staff for a lot of years.
      2, hard one between Roger Hunt and Ian St John, but have gone for Roger Hunt.
      3,Chris Lawler, one of the best full backs in the world, did not say much, but he did not have to he just let his football talk for him.
      4, Ian Callaghan, one of the best wingers i have seen, the thing that made him so good, he was a great team man.
      5, Emlyn Hughes, saw him when he came to Liverpool, he used to run with his arms and legs going everywere, but turned out one of the best in the world.
      6, Kevin Keegan,
      7, Kenny Dalgish, so much has been said about these two, i do not need to say any more.
      8, Ray Clemence, i think the best goaly Liverpool  have ever had, and we have had some great ones.
      9, Jan Molby, big stocky lad, but what he could do with the ball, it was what dreams were made off.
      10, Graeme Souness, if you thou rt Roy Keane was good, this man was better, great player, sh*t manager.
      many more could have been in there, but i will stick by these.
      If you have any other thoughts would love to hear them.
