litmanen was class, just did nt seem to be consistent enough but was capable of unbelievable stuff on the ball, i think the prem did nt suit him either a bit like morientes.

Of the ones said already, i'd echo; Kewell, Cisse, Litmanen, Riera, Morientes, Babel. Always really wanted them to do well when they played. Vladimir Smicer is another one who i always had higher hopes for.
Smicer partially redeemed himself for me with his CL performance alone he replaced the injured Kewell on the half-hour mark, probably to howells of derision from the armchair fans (of which i was one) and yet presented much more of an attacking threat than Kewell and netted twice (albeit one of them via the penalty spot) As disappinting as he was for the rest of his Anfield career he did play a key role in our biggest achievement of the last 20 years and that's got to be worth something

I was actually gonna mention that in my post, but didn't because i was basing it on his all-round Anfield career. He will go down in LFC history because of that night though, and rightly so. Not a bad final performance.

poulson, used to boss midfields about and kicked lumps out of kaka. Markus babble is another one, was great but when he came back from ilness he was a nasty git, did'nt he butt someone and get sent off? In fairness to Babbel, he was quality for us before he got his illness. Chipped in with some crucial goals for us too.

could'nt agree more bar, i loved him and he was lucky to play again but he was a totally different player when he came back Yeah, it was very unfortunate for him. Horrible thing to have happen to him. Suppose he was never really gonna be the same after that. An awful shame!

Something like that can affect people negatively sometimes - a mixture of bitterness and frustration. Not nice to see alright.

Him and Carragher were our unsung heros that year we won the cups I'm assuming your talking about Marcus rather Ryan - the supremely talenbted but incredibly frustrating Dutch forward

Babbel could do both - the goals in that famous Merseyside derby, and in the UEFA Cup Final stand out in my mind.

Oh god I thought you said Babel there, anyways the Babbel was a good full back I really liked him. Unrelated, however is Kelly a fullback, because he seems to be capable of defending so well and bombing in out out.
