Hello all,

I'm young and don't know too much about our previous successful sides in the past. Can anyone enlighten me on Roger Hunt as a player, know very little about him yet he's our second highest goalscorer of all time.

Thanks.

One of only 11 Englishmen to win the World Cup.

A bit in the shadow of Ian St John but a natural goal scorer who could play football if you wanted to but who could look after himself if the opposition were ‘up for it’.

{Ed0666's Note - interesting mate why do you think he was in St Johns shadow mate?

Like most of the sixties team Hunt would run through a brick wall for Shankly, he scored 244 goals in the league and was an extremely accurate finisher, right foot, left foot, head, it didn't matter to him. He also worked very hard, think of Firmino on steroids.

Ed0666, not a comment on either of their skills - just that Roger was a more reserved sort of bloke - wasn’t shouting from the rooftops or anything.
