Liverpools best passer and best penalty taker
the first quality foreign player to play in the premership
there have been loads of quality foreign players playing in england before molby arrived, one of our greatest goalscorers was south african not to mention the dutch pair of muhren and thijssen (sp?) that ipswich had in the late 70`s / early 80`s.
molby (or rambo!) was a hero of mine but his lack of mobility was shocking at times, look at the amount of games he played in over a decade at the club, he should have played twice as many games in a red shirt.
in his first couple of seasons he was easily our best player but after that his weight yo-yo`d and he was in and out of the team.
put it this way, around the late 80`s if molby was out of the team it was no big disaster, if steve mcmahon was out of the team it was a big f##king disaster.
players like whelan and spackman were regulars before molby and that`s sad really because in terms of pure footballing ability molby had more talent in his big toe than spackman.
i must add though that spackman was a grafter, he was like mascherano in the sense that he`d run all day and sprint his f##king heart out to break up an attack or catch an opponent.
