#3 Dietmar Hamann
Ad

Didi Hamann was instrumental during his time at Liverpool, having being brought to the club by Gerard Houllier in 1999. He enjoyed a successful spell at the club, winning every trophy possible besides the league title. The German was a key figure in the miraculous comeback win over AC Milan in the 2005 Champions League final.
Hamann left Liverpool in 2006 to join Manchester City, after agreeing to a pre-contract with Bolton Wanderers. He spent three years with the Citizens, as they were undergoing a transition to become a force in the Premier League. However, the German midfielder's most influential days came at Anfield.
