Who was your favorite Liverpool cult hero that you remember watching? I don't mean the really recognized world class players, per se, but the ones we loved that flew a bit under the radar.

I only started seriously following football at the beginning of the Rafa era, so I'd probably say Dirk Kuyt. Man was never blessed with much raw pace or technical ability, but he was clever with positioning, a work horse, and he always seemed to come through in the clutch. I'll never forget the way he galvanized us during Kenny's half season. Stevie and Carra were hurt, Torres was gone, and we needed a leader. The hat trick against United is one of my favorite games against them I ever watched (bar the 4-1 demolition), and he saved out butts in the league cup final. I think he was a major factor for Suarez adapting so quickly too (the dutch connection). Only ever missed one penalty too (like a 99.9% record or something).

Good shout. I've worn predators for years before I knew he invented them, and I love them even more now that I know. Best shooting boots I've ever found.

igor Biscan, i saw him once in a BMW leaving anfield he has some weird Croatian rap/folk music going on.

loved him.

Danny Murphy- always loved him, had a shirt with his name on the back.

Eric Meijer - Met him in Dortmund for the liverpool Alaves game.
He had HIS Liverpool top on Screaming "are you watching everton!"

Meijer was a bit mental tho, had some weird cookery page on the liverpool website at one point


we seem to have these players every now and then.
