Our best player in the 80s?

Who was our best player in the 80s?

There are so many great names, that I can't decide (yet). If you're undecided as I am, maybe this next video will help:

[Dalglish]

Early 80's Dalglish
Late 80's Barnes

[Doc_Piptorious]

It's a trio for me. Kenny, Souness and Barnes.

[livvy145]

Kenny
Rushie
Digger
Souness
Hansen

Sorry, I can't choose one.

[Mumsafan]

Kenny
Rushie
Digger
Souness
Hansen

Sorry, I can't choose one.

Yes I think it's a bit daft to even try, in all honesty

[Maestro]

Yes I think it's a bit daft to even try, in all honesty

I agree.
Ronnie Whelan deserves a mention though too - he was top quality for nearly the whole decade

[Montana]

Steve Nicol deserves a mention, probably not the best of all but equally as important as he could play a number of positions really well. Also scored a few goals.

[dirty_sanchez]

Dalglish
Barnes
Rush
Souness
Hansen
Lawrenson

In that order

[kubrickscube]

Don't forget Beardsley!

[kubrickscube]

and Molby too..

and Craig Johnston.. Ray Houghton..

[glynner]

this is kind of like a parent trying to pick their favourite kid

[RedJedi]

Kenny

[Shaggy]

Early 80's Dalglish
Late 80's Barnes

Is the correct answer.

Which is amazing when you think about it - Rushie and stacks of other greats completely overlooked.

[cobain]

Yes I think it's a bit daft to even try, in all honesty

That's the whole point.

To be honest, I wouldn't even choose 3 or 4 players, I'd choose the whole 80s team

But it's harder to pick one, innit?

I'd pick Kenny. But Barnes would be just behind him!

Let's not forget Bob Paisley though. MVPerson
