AI list of the 20 greatest Liverpool players of all time.
20. Xabi Alonso
19. Tommy Smith
18. Jordan Henderson
17. Fernando Torres
16. Steve McManaman
15. Sadio Mane
14. Terry McDermott
13. Ray Clemence
12. Kevin Keegan
11. Jamie Carragher
10. Virgil van Dijk
9. Emlyn Hughes
8. Phil Neal
7. Graeme Souness
6. Alan Hansen
5. Mohamed Salah
4. John Barnes
3. Ian Rush
2. Kenny Dalglish
1. Steven Gerrard.
{Ed078's Note - not bad. Would have Kenny before SG, and, even though he was a grub, Suarez has to rank higher than Hendo, Torres, Macca, Sadio and dare I say, Xabi.
13 Jul 2025 10:08:29
Jamie Carragher should not even be on the list.
13 Jul 2025 10:10:15
Cara over Keegan? ?.
13 Jul 2025 10:13:39
Carragher?
Sorry but he wouldn’t get in my top 20, he might struggle to get in my top 50
Roger Hunt?
Ron Yeats?
13 Jul 2025 10:15:12
I hope that’s just a list of 20 and not in any sort of ranking
Carra above Keegan and McDermott?
13 Jul 2025 10:23:17
I wouldn’t have Henderson and certainly not Carragher but definitely Allison and I loved Beardsley. I’m sure there’s plenty of others. Maybe a top 50 Liverpool players might cover it, in no particular order.
13 Jul 2025 10:44:07
If you watched Carragher play and think he was better than Sami Hyypia then I've really got to question your judgement.
13 Jul 2025 10:27:40
There has to be a place for Fowler as well probably for Mane.
13 Jul 2025 10:31:04
How old are you? Under 25? No fowler as well as loads missing from the 80s? Possibly the worst post i've seen in a long time.
13 Jul 2025 10:35:37
Carragher got in based on appearances. There's a small justification for each choice on the original article.
13 Jul 2025 10:38:12
Robbie Fowler?
13 Jul 2025 10:41:09
Kenny Dalglish is clear at no1.
Not only a top talent but the best of mankind.
13 Jul 2025 10:41:41
Roger Hunt? Billy Liddell? I’d have Sami before Carra.
13 Jul 2025 10:54:22
How you can have a top 20 without god is beyond me
Top 20 list mmmmmm
Up the pool.

Queen of the scotty road - try reading a bit slower, its an AI generated list I stumbled across that i thought might be a bit of fun for discussion on a Sunday morning.
13 Jul 2025 11:09:44
Just relieved to see AI is still a bit not good and we are not all about to be replaced.
13 Jul 2025 12:38:09
Depends entirely how you quantify 'greatest'. Hendo captained the club to our first league title in +30 years but he would be warming the bench if competing with Rafa's late 00's midfield that didn't win a thing. talent and accomplishment are two very different things.
13 Jul 2025 13:08:38
And that’s why AI is still a few years off before it wipes out the human race.
13 Jul 2025 13:38:12
If Stevie is the greatest midfielder of all time where does that leave Souness? In my life no one other than Zidane has come close to Gerrard.
13 Jul 2025 14:12:08
Carragher and McManaman don’t belong on that list.
13 Jul 2025 14:32:45
In my opinion I think Souness was better than Gerrard as he was a more complete midfielder. I’d pick him over Gerrard every time because opposition players were terrified of Souness. I think Hansen said that the players thought they could beat anyone because Souness dominated the middle so much.
13 Jul 2025 14:33:14
Keegan has to be higher.
13 Jul 2025 14:53:54
Fair enough, I’m constantly speed reading so missed the A. I. bit, won’t catch me using that garbage anytime soon.
13 Jul 2025 15:16:16
I agree not very intelligent that artificial is it ?.
13 Jul 2025 15:50:12
If Souness had not returned to manage us, and had not talked to the sc*m- he would have been remembered solely for his playing and been right up there.
The most complete midfield player I have had the pleasure of watching play for us.
13 Jul 2025 16:14:25
Carra played over 700 games for Liverpool, openly admits there were better players, but he constantly played well, put in some shifts and was instrumental in a number of trophy wins. Just be open and honest and say you don’t like him as a person.
13 Jul 2025 17:54:10
If it’s an all time list how come there is nobody on the list from 1982 to 1962, when Tommy Smith signed as a 17 year old? ‘All time’ didn’t start in the 1960’s.
13 Jul 2025 17:57:28
Carra is an absolute knob.
13 Jul 2025 18:36:16
I have never met Carragher so I’m judging him on his football ability alone.
Top 50 on a good day.
13 Jul 2025 23:03:20
Am I missing him or did Becker not make that list?
And Carra might have played a lot of games for us but that is more indicative of the lack of options imo. Good player but no way is he one of the best centre backs we have had unless you were limiting the list to the last 40 years.
