Liverpool - It's not looking too bad in the transfer market

Are we talking Premier League? Who are the 'many' more prolific than Rush in the last 10 years? Shearer retired 8 or 9 years ago.

346 goals in 660 games for Liverpool - has anyone in the top league come close to that record ?
 
Depends how you define prolific. Others have a better goal per game ratio.
Also his Newcastle & Leeds record wasn't so great.
Rush was an excellent goal scorer no one is disputing that.

He was about 34 at the time like and hardly in his prime.

I'm surprised people think Everton will finish top 4 when they've only added 3 players to their squad they had last season when they finished 6th.

Liverpool still need a quality proven goalscorer regardless of how much quality in behind they may or may not have.

Fair enough,but 5 in 46 for both Newcastle & Leeds.

I still think they need more quality in their squad tbh.

Probably right but we don't claim to be title contenders. A challenge for 4th is our goal, plus our youngsters will continue to improve. Buying a load of players doesn't always help, look at Spurs last year. I also don't think United will improve as much as people think, they'll be playing for 5th at best IMO. I think it's their turn for a few years in the wilderness.

Take your pick from any stat - it will still say the same story

Rush is up there with the best these shores have seen - his value right now would be through the roof alongside players like Suarez , in 84 he went for a very big fee for that period in the game.

He has the goals and medals to prove his worth - he was a major part in us dominating in the 80's - his goals helped win us leagues and European Cups. He would have been my idol but for one player.
