Leaving Liverpool, its never a good idea, but who actually got success elsewhere?

Despite having zero goals, zero assists and zero good stuff, our illustrious former skipper, former King of the Gays, Jordy Hendershot is now skippering European giants Ajax of Amsterdam.

 

The cream always rises to the top.

 

Edit: then again, so does scum.

But are they bigger achievements than the reserve league with Liverpool?

Even Sheedy,who Evertonians regard as one of their best ever,was not exactly regarded as a shoe in for the first team. That is how strong we were. Fair play to Howard Kendall for having a good eye for a player and developing them at Everton though. He did a fantastic job for them. Unfortunately their fans still believe that those successes entitle them to still be the same way now. Even Kendall knew the writing was on the wall back then.

From that same Everton team there’s Dave Watson; probably wouldn’t have quite squeezed into our 80s side if he’d stuck around, but had a good career at Norwich before heading to Goodison and winning the league. Had four years in and out of the England squad too. 
Same era, different profile - Frank McGarvey scored for fun with Celtic after flipping horribly with us. 
Barry Venison enjoyed his time with Newcastle, Southampton and in Turkey than he would have done if he’d stayed under Souness, and somehow became an international footballer for a bit.
Nigel Spackman won loads in Scotland, and was still kicking around at Chelsea as they started to threaten to become good.

Emre Can won Serie A with Juve, a super cup,  has won the German Cup with Dortmund and looks poised to be in the Champions League final.

Pre 1970s this might have been a worthwhile thread. Post 1992 it probably should be the exact opposite.
