Phil Neal alone for playing the number of games he played should be on the list he was superb and what about Chris Lawler an immaculate player and a goal scorer. Shankly's men should head the list because they are the Genesis of where we are today.
You could easily make a list of another 50 who should be on there mate.
Lawler as you rightly say. Peter Thompson from that time as well. Gordon Milne and Willie Stevenson who were both key parts to Shanks' success.
Somehow Beardsley doesn't make the list. Craig Johnstone and Ray Houghton could be argued are worthy of a place on there. Mark Wright, Rob Jones, Stig Inge Bjornebye and Jamie Redknapp from my childhood. Gary Mac, Henchoz, Babbel, Kuyt, Garcia to bring it a bit more up to date. And maybe even Danny Sturridge who for a time had the best goals to game ratio since Aldo.
And then one of the most underrated players in our history - Joel Matip. For all the plaudits Van Dijk rightly gets, big Joel is every bit as worthy of them as well. And in my opinion has been our best defender this season. Right up there with Gary Mac as one of the best free transfers we've ever made.
The problem is if you put all them in, you have to take someone else out and then the arguments come for how the ones you take out aren't on the list. Limiting it to 50, or even a 100, for our club is nigh on impossible.
