Andy Carroll - Big pressure, Big fee, Big man.
When Carroll was signed earlier this year, it is fair to say it was a "big" signing, for many reasons.
Firstly, Carroll himself. 6ft 3, and 80kg. You only have to look at him to see his one big lad.
Then there was his transfer fee. A record fee for us at £35million. Eclipsing the transfer of Suarez, which was confirmed not long before.
And finally, who he was replacing. A "world class" striker, who despite his indifferent final 6 …

Player Profile: Stewart Downing
On Friday 15th of July 2011 it was announced that Stewart Downing had completed his long awaited move to Liverpool Football Club. It has to be said that this signing has been somewhat underwhelming for most Liverpool fans, especially with the suggested price tag of £20 million.

Also being a left-footed wide player he is something Liverpool have been missing for a long, long time …

Dirk Kuyt - The Overview
Dirk Kuyt has been quite an important player for Liverpool Football Club. Ever since he signed in the summer of 2006, he has played an integral part in each season.
In his first season at the club, the Dutchman hit the back of the net 12 times in the league - a fairly decent amount for his first season in a completely new league. Dirk scored the winning penalty in a tense semi-final shootout against Chelsea in the Champions …
Raul Meireles: Midfield Gem
Raul Meireles is arguably Roy Hodgson’s best signing. Well we never would have said that in December 2010 but since the return of the King he has been exceptional especially with Gerrard was out injured …
Past Academy Graduates, And The Future Potential
NOTE: Before I go into detail in this article, I just want to explain a few things. The numbers, figures, statistics, and transfer fee's are all taken from a combination of; www.Wikipedia.org , www.premierleague.com, and www.lfchistory.net. It is also worth noting I have only included players who were 18 or under when they signed for us. Hence why Insua is included, but Plessis isn't for example. And finally, I've only considered players who have made a league debut for Liverpool. …
