Is Mo In Our Top 5 Greatest Ever Players?

[Jose Jones]

People picking Suarez over Rush blows my tiny mind.

 

Player A - 82 golas, 1 League Cup

Player B - 346 goals, 5 leagues titles, 3 FA Cups, 5 League Cups, 2 European Cups.

 

Who was better for Liverpool Football Club?

Nobody picking him thinks he was better for the club, they think he was a better footballer.

This.  Then Hansen and Clemence. Then Mo gets a shout along with Emlyn and Cally.

Greatest? Easily. Best? Possibly not (although not certainly so). We need to make a distinction between the two. Best is purely about talent for me, but greatness is about overall contribution to the club with everything in the mix (talent, trophies, longevity, character, etc). 
 

 

These are off the top of my head, in no order except the first on each list:
 

Greatest 5: Kenny, Rushie, Mo, Souness, Stevie

 

 Best 5: Suarez, Digger, Stevie, Kenny, Fowler. 

I’d also add

 

Greatest: Salah

Best: Mane

 

Sadio not even had a sniff yet.

Yeah, and the question is Liverpool’s Greatest Ever Players. 
Suarez should be about 50th.

Probably cause the only thing he was better then Salah at was throwing a strop.

 

Mane was very good but in the next tier with players like McManaman.

I'd say that I feel sorry for you but having recently come back from a holiday in Sarigerme I'd definitely swap being able to access mushy peas for living where you are now.

I feel I can’t comment on players before I started going in 1990. I‘m sure Dalglish, Rush, Barnes, Souness, Hansen, Keegan, Toshack, Neal & Clemence etc were all, great. great players, I’m not going to base my opinions on DVD’s and rather what I’ve seen with my own eyes.

 

So with that very hefty caveat…

 

Alisson, Gerrard, Suarez, Van Dijk, Salah.

 

Honourable mentions to Alonso, Mascherano, Mane, Coutinho, Trent, Robbo, Fowler and a host of other

Is it?

 

Mane was an attacking player, his job was to score and create goals.

 

So how about we look back in history on players who has a goal/assist ratio better than one every 140 minute for the club.

 

Where will Mane find himself on the list among those who have more than 10 assists since the 1960/61 season, and among those playing at the club since 1990/91?

 

Goal/assist:

1. Salah - 95 minutes

2. Aldrigde - 99 minutes

3. Suarez - 102 minutes

4. Sturridge - 107 minutes

5. Torres - 112 minutes

6. Owen - 117 minutes

7. Fowler - 121 minutes

7. Collymore - 121 minutes

9. Jota - 122 minutes

10. Origi - 126 minutes

11. Walsh - 130 minutes

11. Hateley - 130 minutes

13. Dalglish - 132 minutes

13. Rush - 132 minutes

13. Crouch - 132 minutes

16. Mane - 136 minutes

17. Firmino - 137 minutes

18. Toshack - 139 minutes

Walsh above Dalglish. Interesting.

 

13 year old me if he could see this list...

 

[Jairzinho]

Origi was definitely better than Rush. 

[Arniepie]

i think its hard to judge unless you have actually seen them,

I only saw the tail end of kennys playing career and never saw souness, but both would have to be in there.

 

In the flesh it would be barnes, gerrard and luis.

 

controversial view, but Its often forgotten just how good owen was. For 2/3 years he was utterly phenomenal.

[Grinch]

Chief cuck is just doing his usual thing.  He put Salah in his own top five and mentioned Mane below him along with Coutinho.  McManaman of course was a better player both for us and elsewhere then the Brazilian.

 

So what exactly was the cuck wum arguing about.

Salah couldn't lace Gordon Hodgson's boots and if you don't know that, you're a cuck wum.
