When I was young (about eight), Kevin Keegan was my hero. He in fact was the reason why I became a Liverpool supporter.A couple of years later, just as I started to understand more about football and Liverpool he left. He was not even past his prime but rather at his peak and one hell of a player (probably best in the world) so I was shocked.
I have never really understood why he left at his prime, and more importantly why Liverpool supporters never talk about Keegan as an Anfield legend as he was a great player. He is never mentioned on this board as the the other players from that era are. Just curoius why.
I met him when he played for the Saints and my brother and I asked him why he left Liverpool and he seemed uncomfortable and did not really answer the question.
Was wandering if anyone knew why he left (Paisley was the manager at the time).
