#4 Graeme Souness
For those who watched him play, Graeme Souness was the embodiment of what came to be known as the 'midfield general' and it was during his stint at Liverpool from 1978 to 1984 that the club enjoyed the most successful period in its history.
He went on to become the captain of the club in the early 1980s and the Scot is still regarded as one of the finest central midfielders to have ever played in England. Souness had the ability to control games from midfield, take himself into goal scoring positions, break up play and cover great distances throughout the course of a game.
He joined Liverpool in 1978 and over the next seasons, helped the club win 5 First Division titles, 3 League Cups and most importantly, 3 European Cups. Souness went on to manage the club in 1991 but the three-year spell that ended in 1994 was not as fruitful as Liverpool only won 1 FA Cup in that period.
