Liverpool Players Past And Present
A place where you can post comments about Liverpool players. Your favourites, your least favourites. Who have been great value, who have flopped. Let us know what you think.
On This Day 11th July
Two outgoing transfers on this day 11th July for two very popular players. The players in question were Dietmar Hamann and Peter Crouch. Read about their time at Liverpool below….
The Dark Side
These players are indeed very rare. A direct transfer of players between Manchester United and Liverpool is virtually a “no-no”. The last player to move directly between the two clubs was Phil Chisnall back in 1964 when he moved from Manchester United to Liverpool. A move to or from the dark side is virtually unheard […]
Robbie Keane
Happy Birthday today to Robbie Keane. Maybe not the signing we all hoped he would be, Robbie Keane joined Liverpool from Tottenham Hotspur in July 2008. After scoring only seven goals in 28 appearances, Keane returned to Spurs in January 2009. Today he will be enjoying his 38th birthday.
David James
It seems that our goalkeeper discussions have been going on for donkeys years. Who has been worthy appears to be the question. Ever since Ray Clemence, some fans will arguably announce that virtually every custodian we have had have not been top drawer. You decide for yourself. One such custodian was David James.
Fernando Morientes
Yesterday we posted about Fernando Torres. Today it’s the turn of another Fernando. This time, Fernando Morientes. On this day, 5th July 2006, Fernando Morientes left Liverpool after a less than successful time with the club it has to be said.
Fernando Torres
It was such a popular signing. And a very high profile one. It cost us a lot of money as well, but well worth it. Who was it? On this day, 4th July 2007, we sign Fernando Torres from Atletico Madrid. The fee was a large one for that era – £20.4m, but as touched […]
Luis Garcia
Has he ever answered the question so many fans have asked over the years? The question is not which was his best Liverpool goal? Or, who was his most difficult opponent? Or, did it cross the line? (he has answered that question actually). No, nothing like that. The burning question is,
The New Zinedine Zidane
It’s hard enough to make it as a professional footballer as it is. But when you have made it and looking to develop your career does a new label really help you? I don’t think so. Even more so, when the label placed on you is heralding you as a successor to one of the […]
Jamie Redknapp
June certainly is a popular month for Liverpool players birthdays isn’t it. On this day 25th June 1973, our classy ex-midfielder, Jamie Redknapp was born. Just in case you didn’t know, Jamie is the son of Harry (or ‘Arry) Redknapp.
On This Day 24th June
One very memorable event occurred on this day 24th June 1967. So much of today’s talk is about which goalkeeper should employ as the number one. No such problem for 11 years after this significant signing on this day 24th June 1967. One of Liverpool’s best signings ever? Most definitely.
