Ian Rush

<< < (5/6) > >>

Red_Mist:
Was just a bit drunkenly looking at some stats….and an extraordinary one is that in the calendar years of 1982 + 1986, in those two years Sir Ian Rush banged in a grand total of 82 goals for LFC, in 122 games.

The man was a goal machine in a red shirt.

Fucking love Ian Rush.

Red_Mist:
P.S. add in 1983, 1984 and 1985 and he banged in another 98 goals 😂😂😂 Insane. 180 goals ‘82-‘86. Never be beaten that.

(Sir Roger came closest)

He was brilliant. I was at his last game v Watford, the Hansen testimonial when we sang "Rushie Rushie do you wanna come home?" but never expected him to come back that soon, if ever.

spen71:
My favourite player.     He was the original presser.    Would chase every defender

Jon2lfc:
I always hated how they compared him with Lineker who was kind of his peer during part of the 80s.
I always felt Lineker was prolific but not as versatile or gifted as Rushie.
Just compare highlight reels - they're very different players imo.
