      Premier League XI - based on appearances
      Sep 23, 2018 03:35:53 pm
      With Jordan Henderson just a few games of short of breaking into the top 11 Premier League appearances for Liverpool, I took a look at what our side would look like if it just consisted of our top appearance makers over the past 25 years.

      GK - Reina (285 - 4th)

      RB - Carragher (508 - 1st)
      CB - Skrtel (242 - 7th)
      CB - Hyypia (318 - 3rd)
      LB - Riise (234 - 9th)

      RW - Gerrard (504 - 2nd)
      CM - Henderson (216 - 11th) (he's currently got 213, Owen has 216)
      CM - Lucas (247 - 6th)
      CM - Redknapp (231 - 10th)
      LW - McManaman (240 - 8th)

      CF - Fowler (266 - 5th)

      It’s an alright team I suppose  :lmao:

      We have had some pure quality at the club and that doesn’t include any of the current bunch plus players like - Suarez , Coutinho and Torres

      Robbie Fowler would of been up there with Stevie and Carra if he hadn't kicked the ball at Phil Thompson.

      Only just seen this post and sadly it reflects probably why we haven't won the Premier League.

      Gerrard apart, we've just battled on for too long with 'not quite good enough' midfielders.

      Now if the likes of Alonso and Mascherano had been in our all time top appearance makers, then things may have been different.

      Jordy's appearance today took him past Michael Owen and is now fifteen games short of getting into the top ten.

      Would you prefer our second string as far as Premier League appearances is concerned? (it has to go number 23 - Emile Heskey, rather than 22 as the next 11 include two keepers - James and Mignolet)

      GK - James (214 - 13th)

      RB - Jones (155 - 20th)
      CB - Agger (175 - 16th)
      LB - Johnson (160 - 19th)

      RM - Kuyt (208 - 14th)
      CM - Murphy (170 - 17th)
      CM - Hamann (191 - 15th)
      CM - Coutinho (152 - 22nd)
      LM - Barnes (162 - 18th)

      CF - Owen (216 - 12th)
      CF - Heskey (150 - 23rd)
