Midfield Molby can't be beat in my book.
Molby absolute joy to watch Daws loved him. Never moved his ar.se just waited for the ball the bang. Unbeilevable ball player . never seen him make many tackles though. But once he had the ball very very hard to shift it off him.

Callaghan Saint ,SACRALIDGE
One of my all time favs
spot on NR also saint, sorry but i totally dis-agree with the 80's choice mate [to spell his name wrong was also SACRLIDGE] -CRAIG JOHNSTON was an awsome player,i can honestly say i never saw him have a bad game for us, watching him in that suberb team of the 80's week in week out, his enthusiasm,commitment,attitude was second to none.
IMHO gerrard would have found a place in the side of any era but for who ? very good question, as you say mate i would of hated dropping anyone of great teams gone by it's far easier to make that decision in our side right now.
sorry for not commiting to the debate mate but it's that hard for me to name any player from the years you mention.
totally agree tho gerrard is a red through & through, who will be remembered as a LFC legand.
Have to disagree with Craig Johston, I thought he was overated and just happened to be in a brilliant team at the time

sorry mate but we'll have to agree to dis-agree on that cause the amount of games in which he scored & created chances for the likes of king kenny & rushy were what helped us be the force we were with the other midfilders. he scored vital goals to win or help us to go on to win that he will always be a player i mention to others when they talk about the great side of the 80's.
talking of which i haven't watched the 86 cup final for a week or two so that will cheer me up no end watching "skippy" score the all important goal for us to go on & "crunch the toffee's"
& rushie's goal for hitting the camera at the back of the net for number 3 was poetry in motion.

Clemance
Neal Hanson Hyypia Nichol
Keegan Gerrard Souness Barnes
Dalglish
Rush
Hyypia is in because Hanson said in his book he wasn't comfortable challenging for balls in the air. Nichol because he seemed to have it all and with Neal also being comfortable in either role they could swop positions as and when they felt like it. The rest hopefully speak for themselves.

I actually think he can play much better Sabes, and once Torres is back he will. I think sometimes he's on a different level to the people we are playing up front recently (certainly very recently) and as such his game is blunted a bit.
What he's discovered though as I said earlier is the art of just cruising through games but still being the best player. His finish for the second goal against Hull was of the very highest order and an indication of where he's at. He has plenty of time to think about it, had to make sure he didn't hit it too hard as he was leaning backwards, and nad to steer it in. That ability to think within the moment is a God gift which only a few have.
Funnily enough I think his owrse performances this season (West Ham at home springs to mind) have been when he's reverted to previous type and gone more gung-ho. It could be our league position but on those occasions he's got himself a bit carried away and tried the impossible too often.
