Apart from Graeme Souness, was Mark Walters ever rated by anybody? He was fucking shit.

I remember thinking he was ace at Villa, mind you that was only based on MOTD highlights. 

[Tony Moanero]

Reina - very good at his best, but never the world class goalkeeper that some made him out to be.

 

Luis Garcia - I loved the little fella and his goals, but he could be frustrating to watch and was prone to giving the ball away.

3 successive golden gloves wins disputes he wasn't world class over his first few years here

True.

[Bjornebye]

Who are you neggin usher you fucking wombat 

 

If its because of Arbeloa - He wasn't all that. People seem to think he was. If it was Henchoz,  yeah he was ok alongside Hyppia but... because of Hyppia. He used to gas 5 minutes into every game. 

 

The rest you simply have no argument for.

More than anything, it shows he was playing behind a good defence.

 

De Gea has 2 clean sheets in 18 league games this season. Nuff said.

[Lee909]

Reina was a massive part of that in his first three years. His last 18-24 months of being shit doesn't take away him being a brilliant keeper for 3 years.

I recon it’s because Usher and Baros had the same hairdo.

They use the same hairband brand 

[Remmie]

Baros made a few quid for several forumites when he top scored at the Euros, think he was 66/1.

Good job you have good taste in music lad, some shocking mentions in that list. 

 

When the fuck did Westerweld ever get lauded.

By fellow Reds.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

I'd have Dudek in goal.  If we take off our Istanbul-tinted specs, you can see that he wasn't really all that.

Owen is a terrible shout.  He was a fucking machine when he was here; but he never really got the love that, say, Fowler got and because of the manner of his departure and his poor choices thereafter, he still gets dog's abuse.  He'd be a good call for an XI of players underrated by Liverpool fans.
