Jan Mølby's Top 5 Liverpool Legends

[Oncy]

No legend list is credible without Souness in the top three and is bordering moronic without him at all - just sayin'

A bit unfair to people who only started watching football in the 80's Vlad.
I dont have strong memories at all of Souness.

Haha indeed old chum - that's why these who's the greatest threads are a massive waste of everyone's time.
No one mentions Gordon Hodgson [emoji6]

 

[Portly]

Lawrence, Lawler, Byrne, Milne, Yeats, Stevenson, Thompson, Hunt, St. John, Strong, Callaghan! 😉

Big Ron Yeats is still a regular in the Main Stand, although he seems to mingle with us plebs and not with the Directors' Box sort of people.

And Terry McDermott remains a huge favourite of mine, years ahead of his time as a midfielder, and what this team would do with a player with his energy, stamina, anticipation, imagination and capacity for inspired attacking moments.

 

[Holle]

Leaving out Gerrard is a crime for those that haven't selected him.

I'm not old enough and haven't seen Rush, Dalglish, Barnes etc. play, so based on players I have seen my top 5 would be.

Gerrard
Suarez
Torres
Owen
Fowler

*spits coffee on screen*

Fernando Fucking Transfer Request on Deadline Day Torres?!

Are you insane?

 

[gkmacca]

Actually, if you fed into a computer all the shortcomings of our present midfield, in an attacking sense, and then asked for a solution,you'd get this:



Give me the choice of Coutinho and Terry Mac, Terry wins every damn time.

 

[LarryHagman]

I always get a semi whenever Terry Mc is mentioned. Complete midfielder. A midfield 4 of Barnes, Gerrard, Souness and McDermott would be tops.

 

[KopRed]

I'm shocked people of my current generation would leave out Gerrard. Unless you are about a hundred years old maybe you have more to choose from.

And Suarez? Great player, maybe one of the best ever to play for us but I wouldn't even have him over Carragher for example.

Maybe there is a need to spell out the definition of "LEGEND".

Suarez was the greatest player I've ever seen in a Liverpool shirt. If you are applying that sort of logic/ criteria Joey Jones should be in everyone's list and Barnes wouldn't

Sorry,you can't compare Ray Kennedy with Joey Jones.Jones was great,a real warrior,but he didn't last and for the reason he wasn't good enough to be in that team.Kennedy was an important cog in the machine that won 5 League Titles and 3 European Cups.Barnes was fantastic but didn't get the chance to play on the greatest stage of all.A shame.

"Ray's contribution to Liverpool's achievements was enormous and his consistency remarkable. So much so, in fact, that on the rare occasions he missed a match his absence was felt deeply simply because he was a midfield power house with tremendous vision and knowledge of the game... In my view he was one of Liverpool's greatest players and probably the most underrated."

I wasn't comparing Joey Jones with anyone - I was pointing out the futility of these threads, but my point seems to have been completely missed

 

[jexykrodic]

If someone's telling you who you can and can't choose then they're the worst kind of old age cunt. Tell them to do one.

Fuckin' hell.

 

[tombrown]

Maybe there is a need to spell out the definition of "LEGEND".

It can be debated along with the definition of "world class"

 

[Vlads Quiff]

Exactly these fucking threads are so subjective they end up a complete fucking car-crash

 

[manwithnoname]

Exactly these fucking threads are so subjective they end up a complete fucking car-crash

I know.

I assumed it was sort of based on players Jan Molby had played with, but I didn't read it that closely, because I don't fucking care
