CM) Javier Mascherano
The Argentine arrived at Anfield after a short-lived and controversial spell with West Ham United. He quickly bit that behind him with a series of increasingly impressive displays – a trait that eventually earned him a move to Barcelona after 139 games.
CM) Xabi Alonso
One of the best midfield players from any club of the modern era. The ice cool playmaker was incredible alongside Steven Gerrard during his time with us, and it was a sad day when the Spaniard moved to Real Madrid in 2009.
CM) Jordan Henderson
The only man representing the current crop of Liverpool stars. The 24-year-old has been tipped as the successor to the MLS-bound Gerrard, and has been steadily growing into those mighty shoes with some fine performances in recent weeks.
