Bascombe names his top 50 Liverpool players

[Jairzinho]

Costa would be going off on a stretcher within about three minutes. Can you imagine what defenders would do to him in response to his antics?

 

Javier would be like a pig in shit.

[Harry Squatter]

Dixie Dean would Defo score 60 Premier League goals a season but probably can't run around like Lukaku.

Mascherano doesn't exactly refrain from shithousery either, judging by his Busquetsesque antics against Real.

It quite clearly isn't natural though, is it? Every single player does it in that game. Costa does it every game, as he did for Atletico.

Fair point. 

 

I must say I enjoyed Costa's antics against Real and Chelsea last season. I also reckon that I wouldn't have a huge problem with them, or indeed him, if he played for us.

Yeah, same. I loved Bellamy being a bit of a cunt, Costa has turned it up to 11 in comparison, but I reckon I'd still love it if he played for us.

[Russ Atmosphere]

I don't know how Costa gets away with so much, on the pitch, but also in the press. If he ever does anything controversial against England he'll be fucked.

[Paul]

Chat we were having at lunch today as it happens. Whelan/Souness or Alonso/Masherano for todays team. All the younger guys went with the latter.

I'd go Souness/Alonso.

[Russ Atmosphere]

Sex.

[Jairzinho]

Souness/Gerrard. Both aged 27/28.

[Dr Nowt]

I'd go Souness/Alonso.

 

Souness/Gerrard. Both aged 27/28.

 

[Frank Dacey]

People rightly praise Souness' technical ability but the thing that distinguishes him was his winner's mentality. Put him in a modern team and he would be fit enough so that he could win. Henderson reminds me a bit of Terry Mac who was also a great runner, though Hendo needs to add a goal or two. Think what he'd be like if only he could run properly?

[Paul]

Souness/Gerrard. Both aged 27/28.

Centre mid is a waste for peak Gerrard. At his best he was a forward. I'd play him on the right of a three with Kenny and Digger behind Luis. There's 80 plus goals in that attack alone.

Yeah, I wouldn't pick a two man central midfield either...but if we're going to...Souness/Gerrard.

 

Four four fucking two. Dalglish and Suarez up top. Barnes and Liddell on the wings...bring on Rush in the second half...*drifts back to reality and remembers Borini and Balotelli are Liverpool players*.

[mattyq]

I'd have Rushie and Luis up top with Kenny just behind and a midfield 3 of Digger, Souness and Gerrard

That's 100 goals

This thread has been quality

That's a great team however I'd have to have gerard in alonso's place and have rushie on and move Luis back with the King and Digger.

That team would fuck the league so hard the pips would squeak

I'd think about Markus Babbel at RB

Never a mistake to have a German in the team

I could easily make a case for Babbel or Rob Jones there, 2 of my favourites. But went with Neal as although he's a bit of a tit now you can't argue with his stats, trophies won and record for the club.
