Greatest XI of all time - Liverpool 

Centre-Forward - Ian Rush

Ian Rush is the greatest Liverpool goalscorer of all time

Talking about Liverpool strikers, there is only one player who outshines them all and he is Dalglish's partner-in-crime, Ian Rush. Incidentally, he outscores them all too with a whopping 346 goals for the club across two spells spanning 15 years.

The Welshman joined in 1980 and won 5 league titles, 3 FA Cups, 5 League Cups and a European Cup during his entire Liverpool career. A quick runner with a thinking mind, Rush was famous for sneaking behind defenders. On adding his work ethic to it as the team's first defender, he was every manager's dream.

Goalscoring records tumbled every time he set foot on the pitch as he holds several Liverpool records along with being the top scorer for Wales as well. A huge factor in endearing himself to the Liverpool fans is his stunning record against Merseyside rivals, Everton, who have seen the great striker score 25 goals past them.

For a club with a history of great forwards, Rush's talent and achievements make him the greatest of them all and a benchmark for every striker who will don the fabled no.9 jersey at Anfield.
