[KingKenny]

no the bloke that crushed the english back in '86

aye the HAND OF GOD

[Tee]

Rushie. Cried my eyes out when he left and almost passed out with happiness when he re-joined. Greatest goalscorer I have ever seen.

[Maestro]

Has to be Kenny Mathieson Dalglish....I absolutely worship that man even still.
A wizard with a football and a great ambassador for our club.

LEGEND OF LEGENDS!!!

Barnes and then Fowler

[Speedy]

Andy Gray





Souness and Rush

[mick the click]

Sir Roger Hunt, Cally, Peter Thompson (I saw him play - he couldn't half tackle as well as 'wing')

[alunevans]

When very young it was Joey Jones :fistclench:

Kenny then took over the mantle and still has it

[alunevans]

Ian Callaghan (he was my grandads favourite so I copied) but my own hero was Kevin Keegan. I was 10 when he left & took it personally, then King Kenny arrived & he was forgotten.

My Dad took it personally too and still hasn't forgiven him for leaving. He says he's a mercenary and I can see his point. Why leave the European Champions to join bloody Hamburg??

I watched Southampton 2 Liverpool 1 on Channel 442 the other day too, and Keegan was playing for them and was loving their second goal. Things like that bug me.

[alunevans]

Errr. My dad. End of. Hero.

Nice.

Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy Jimmy Case.

Ian Rush for me, I had a dozen posters of him on my wall. My favourites were... before he went to juve, and they had been bidding like mad for him. We kept saying no. The poster read 'MORE THAN LIRE CAN BUY'. Great. There was another of him in the yellow strip scoring a goal with the caption 'PACE SETTERS DON'T SMOKE'. Tell that to didi hamann. Anyone remember that?
