Topic: 100 Players Who Shook The Kop Returns

[Malaysian Kopite]

100 Players Who Shook The Kop – the groundbreaking series that had every Liverpool fan talking back in 2006 – is set to return this summer in association with Carlsberg, and you can get involved now by casting your vote.

More than 100,000 Liverpool fans voted in the original series six years ago and the list became the definitive rundown of our greatest ever players.

The poll is still quoted by the media and authors to this day, but how different will it look seven years on? Who will surprise everyone by sneaking into the top 100? And which of the current squad will make the list?

Kenny Dalglish beat Steven Gerrard to the number one spot last time but our current No.8 has lifted two trophies, had an FA Cup final named after him and won both PFA and FWA player of the year awards since fans last voted in early 2006.

We want you to select your top 10 in order now. You can vote for players from as far back as 1892 (our first skipper of note, Andrew Hannah) and there are details of all the contenders below.

You've got until the end of February to have your say before the list in revealed on Liverpoolfc.com and LFC TV day by day over the summer. You can also let us know your thoughts on who should feature where on Twitter with the hashtag #100pwstk.

Where the hell is Ryan Babbel?! 

[redforlife]

Where the hell is Ryan Babbel?! 

Where's Daniel Sturridge!!

[Fuzion6]

Where is big Andy!! That semi final goal alone should get him on that list.

[redforlife]

Just put my list in, i've taken the subject literally and went for those players who've made the Kop feel like it's shaking and go absolutely off it's head

Am having to go part with what i have seen and partly reputation - never saw Keegan play but surely he has to be in the top 10, right?

[west_london_red]

Kenny
Gerrard
Barnes
Rush
Sami
Fowler
Keegan
Carragher
Torres
Garcia

[spider-neil]

Went for my favorites. And one of those is Torres. Yes Torres, yeah, I said it.

[GlenJohnson2]

I had Gerrard as number 1.

[spider-neil]

I had Gerrard as number 1.

John Barnes for me

[DerKaiser]

Steven Gerrard
Kenny Dalglish
John Barnes
Graeme Souness
Emlyn Hughes
Ian Rush
Robbie Fowler
Alan Hansen
Fernando Torres
Sami Hyypia

I think i'm missing a few who when I remember will make me feel like a proper tit.

[mikey_LFC]

How much change will there really be, I mean who in the last 7 years has done enough to reach the top ten. Are best players were Gerrard, Carragher, Alonso, Hyypia, Suarez, Reina and Torres.

Gerrard and Carragher were already in the top ten, and the rest although they were great didn't do enough to reach the top ten, apart from maybe one but he isn't going to be rated very highly for a very good reason.

We've only won one cup since the last vote, maybe two if the F.A Cup at the end of that season was after the vote. The real changes will be newer player coming in further down the list, players like Owen dropping massively and Titi Kamara probably won't be on the list anymore. 

[Hazell]

Kuyt, Mascherano, Skrtel and Benayoun might be on it now.

[spider-neil]

The big change for me is Luis Suarez who for me is number 2 on my list.

[Brentieke]

Can only speak about the players I've seen in my lifetime

Thus:

1) Barnes
2) Gerrard
3) Fowler
4) Hyypia
5) Suarez
6) Torres
7) Mcmanaman
Beardsley
9) Alonso
10) Carragher


Missed out on Rush in his prime, only caught his second spell for us.

[Cocomin]

Kenny
Gerrard
Barnes
Rush
Sami
Fowler
Keegan
Carragher
Torres
Garcia

I know it's your personal choice but to pick Garcia in front of Souness is just madness and Carra or Sami in front of Hansen ?

[Phil M]

Where the hell is Ryan Babbel?! 

I dunno, who's Ryan Babbel?

[Cocomin]

Kenny Dalglish
Graeme Souness
Stevie Gerrard
Billy Liddell
John Barnes
Ian Rush
Luis Suarez
Alan Hansen
Emlyn Hughes
Stevie Nicol

[DerKaiser]

I'd have Ryan Babel on that list. Some of his moments in the Champions League were unreal.

[markitravis]

Le Tallec
Pennant
Diao
Gonzalez
Cheyrou
Nunez
Adam
Voronin
Kvarme
Josemi

[Zeppelin]

It might be worth pointing out that we do have a history that goes back earlier than the 70s.

[longtimered]

    Billy Liddel
   Steven Gerrard
   Kenny Dalglish
    Emlyn Hughes
   Ian St John
    Elisha Scott(on stories passed on when I was a kid)

Degan Carra  Sami  Agger

2. Dalglish
3. Rush
4. Liddel
5. Souness
6. Thompson
7. Hyypia
8. Fowler
9. Carragher
10. Hansen

[Malaysian Kopite]

There wasn't an option for him 

Only 10 players can be selected 

[Phil M]

1. The King
2. Steven Gerrard
3. Billy Liddel
4. Ian Rush
5. John Barnes
6. Emlyn Hughes
7. Roger Hunt
8. Ray Clemence
9. Graham Souness
10. Kevin Keegan

[spider-neil]

Those SOB's at .TV have a lot to answer for.

[west_london_red]

I know mate, if had to pick tomorrow my answers would be totally different but bare in mind im 30 years old, so missed Souness's days as a player and only really remember his days as manager... which can cloud anyones judgement

I must have added and removed Hansen 2 or 3 times when I was picking my 10, but again my age means I didnt see much of him play and particularly with Sami, I cannot convey the amount of love I have for him. There is seriously nothing you can fault him for from his transfer fee, to his performances to the amount of goals he scored to way he conducted himself for the 10 years or so he was with us, it was impecible to a degree that very rarely comes about.

You don't have to explain yourself. Your favorites are your favorites. 

[west_london_red]

Kenny Dalglish
Graeme Souness
Stevie Gerrard
Billy Liddell
John Barnes
Ian Rush
Luis Suarez
Alan Hansen
Emlyn Hughes
Stevie Nicol

Now I will return the favour :p

Has Suarez done enough to be on the list? If he sticks around for a few more seasons at his current form it cannot be argued but would say its too early yet.

[KiNki]

he's single handly saved us from being where newcastle and villa are in the table.

[spider-neil]

Quality not quantity. Before Glen Johnson my favorite right back was Marcus Babel and he only played one season.

Suarez is in my top 5.

[Phil M]

Aaah fresh bait.

[johnny74]

I'd have preferred a list of 15 cause that's the number of absolutely must have players that are in my head.

I stuck Dietmar Hamann into my list of the usual suspects just because I've always thought he was utterly awesome.

Gerrard
Dalglish
Barnes
Beardsley
McManaman
Fowler
Hamann
Hansen
Hyypia
and the last one I forgot as my brain was arguing with itself and I've submitted it now. Probably Molby.

If I'd had another five options I'd have stuck in Suarez, Lucas, Alonso, Rush, Aldridge (or possibly Souness in his place).

[Hazell]

Maximiliano Rodriguez.

[Phil M]

No room for Craig then?

Fair enough lad i'm a bit older so it's easier for me to pick Souness and Hansen , Sami was class for us no doubt about it
he's exactly what we need right now he could still probably do a job 

[Cocomin]

Fair point mate i know he's only been here a short while but i cannot honestly think that i have seen much better in the
red shirt , every single game he does something that makes me jump up shouting " go on son " not many have done that for me !
