#3 Thierry Henry

Liverpool suffered in the hands of the former Arsenal striker

Another player Liverpool fans were wary of, Thierry Henry, was a huge force to reckon with in the Premier League at the peak of his career. Known for stepping up when it mattered the most, the Frenchman was usually at his best when he came up against Liverpool.

Henry proved to be a serial tormentor for the Reds, leading Arsenal to nine victories against them in 18 matches. The other nine games produced six defeats and three draws, meaning he also has a better head-to-head record against the Merseysiders.

Eight of his nine total strikes against Liverpool were recorded in the Premier League while the remaining one was scored in the EFL Cup. The Frenchman concluded his career with a massive 175 EPL goals, making him one of the most prolific finishers the division has witnessed.

#2 Andy Cole

No one has scored more goals against Liverpool than Andy Cole

The Premier League's third highest goalscorer of all-time didn't take it easy with Liverpool during his active playing days. With a return of 11 goals and two assists in 23 games, he ranks among the five players who have tormented the Reds the most so far in their history.

What's more surprising is that Andy Cole bagged all those goals in the Premier League from just 20 games. The most beautiful of them all is the stunning long-range effort he scored for Blackburn against Liverpool in front of their own fans at Anfield on December 26, 2002.

#1 Didier Drogba

Liverpool's number one nemesis

Didier Drogba simply loved scoring against Liverpool. It is interesting to learn that the Reds are one of the clubs against whom the former Chelsea striker scored the most in his career, with a massive 11 goals and seven assists in 30 games.
