Slovak international Martin Skrtel arrived at Anfield in January 2008 with a reputation for being a no-nonsense centre-back.

His signature followed a long search by Rafa Benitez for defensive cover, with Skrtel expected to battle it out with Jamie Carragher, Sami Hyypia and Daniel Agger for a place at the heart of Liverpool's defence.

The 6ft 4 defender began his career with FC Previdza after choosing football over hockey. From there he enjoyed a spell with FC Trencin before moving to the Russian Premier League with FC Zenit in 2004.

Skrtel's performances during 113 games led to international recognition and interest from a host of European clubs including Valencia, Everton and Spurs.

But it was the Reds who eventually clinched his signature and the Slovak made his debut as a second-half sub against Aston Villa on January 21, 2008.

Boyhood Liverpool fan Harry Kewell has been out of action for the majority of the 2006/07 season as he is recovering from Septic Arthritis, a bacterial infection in the joints of his left foot.


Australian international Kewell fulfilled a dream when he joined the Anfield club in July 2003 from Premiership rivals Leeds United, but unfortunately a series of injury problems have hampered his Anfield career.

His most consistent season was 2005/06 when he was getting a good run of games in a row and scored some great goals including a fine strike against Everton. Kewell also produced a man of the match performance in the FA Cup semi-final win over Chelsea, but like the previous season in a major final was forced to leave the field in Cardiff with an injury.

Gerard Houllier fought hard to secure the services of Kewell who he felt would add more flair, width and imagination to the Liverpool team.

His debut season at Anfield was mixed. He settled in well and scored 11 goals but the second half of the season from January 2004 onwards he was playing through the pain barrier with an injured ankle.

Kewell turned down approaches and indeed big money offers from Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea to join Liverpool.

Harry started his footballing life at the New South Wales Football Academy in Australia in August 1994 before he was spotted by Leeds manager Howard Wilkinson, and joined the Elland Road club in 1996. It was Wilkinson who handed Kewell his debut at the age of 17 when he appeared as a substitute against Middlesbrough.

Kewell went on to become a major star at Leeds and was widely regarded as one of the best players in the Premiership. He is versatile, can score and create goals, has pace in abundance and can beat defenders for fun.

His best spell at Leeds was under David O'Leary when Harry was named PFA Young Footballer of the Year and Leeds Player of the Year for 1999/2000.

Captain of Liverpool FC and a product of the Liverpool Youth Academy, Steven Gerrard captained Liverpool to their fifth European Cup against AC Milan in Istanbul.


He was also named PFA Player of the Year for 2006 and was awarded the MBE in the Queen's honours list at the start of 2007. He also gave an inspirational peformance when he scored twice to help Liverpool win the FA Cup against West Ham. His last gasp sensational strike forced extra-time and broke Hammers fans hearts and sent Reds fans ecstatic.

Gerrard is the driving force of the team and plays with a great passion for the red shirt. He signed a new four year contract in the summer of 2005 and put an end to the speculation about his future.

In Istanbul Gerrard scored the first goal that got Liverpool back into the game in the Champions League final against AC Milan, and also won the penalty that enabled Xabi Alonso to equalise.

A boyhood Liverpool fan, Gerrard is living the dream of playing for his team and is considered by many to be the complete midfield player.

Tough tackling and with great passing vision Gerrard is also capable of scoring spectacular goals. Indeed his strike against Manchester United during the 2000/01 treble season was voted the club's best ever Premiership goal, in an exclusive poll on Liverpoolfc.tv

Gerrard's medal collection with his boyhood team now reads Champions League, two FA Cup, two League Cup (Worthington and Carling), UEFA Cup, UEFA Super Cup. Gerrard also picked up the PFA Young Player of the Year award in 2001.

Gerrard made his Reds debut in November 1998 as a second half substitute for Vegard Heggem against Blackburn. His full debut came in the UEFA Cup against Celta Vigo and despite the Reds losing on the night, Gerrard's outstanding performance belied his tender years.

Israeli captain Yossi Benayoun signed from West Ham on July 12, 2007.

The midfielder began his career at Hapoel Be'er Sheva, 30 miles from where he was born and grew up.

He was invited to join the Ajax Academy aged 15 but homesickness meant he spent just one full season in Holland before returning to Hapoel.

Benayoun broke into the first team soon after his return in 1997, scoring 15 goals in his first season.

Despite this, the club were relegated and their star man was off to Maccabi Haifa. Several foreign clubs had expressed an interest, but three years of national service would keep him at home until the age of 21.

International recognition soon came his way, with the player nicknamed The Kid making his senior debut aged 18 against Portugal in November 1998.

Benayoun was developing into one of the shining lights of Israeli football. He was the country's second top scorer in 1999-00 with 19 goals.

In 2000-01 he helped lead Haifa to their first title in seven years, winning the division's most valuable player in the process.

The following campaign brought another title-winner's medal but it was to be his last in his homeland. After four seasons, 130 appearances and 55 goals for Haifa, the midfielder was on his way to northern Spain and Racing Santander.

Benayoun enjoyed three seasons in La Liga, managing 21 goals in 101 matches before financial difficulties forced his owners to cash in.

West Ham reportedly paid £2.5million for the winger in the summer of 2005, though he instantly repaid some of his fee with two assists against Blackburn Rovers on the opening day of the season.

Benayoun quickly established himself as one of the Premiership's best right-sided midfielders.

His five goals and seven assists helped Alan Pardew's side finish 9th in 2005-06 - as well as an FA Cup final against Liverpool.

West Ham may have lost on penalties, but their number 15's disappoint was soon eased with news he was being handed the Israeli captaincy.

The father-of-two bagged another three goals in his final year with The Hammers, taking his total to eight in 63 league appearances.

Benayoun made his Reds debut in a Champions League qualifier against Toulouse on August 15, 2007.

Six weeks later he opened his Liverpool account with a classy run and finish in a 4-2 Carling Cup victory at Reading.

More cup joy followed in November 2007 with a hat-trick in an 8-0 drubbing of Besiktas in the Champions League group stages.

Boyhood Liverpool fan Craig Bellamy fulfilled a dream when he left Blackburn Rovers to join the Rafalution at Anfield in July 2006.


Bellamy follows in the footsteps of the likes of Ian Rush, John Toshack and Dean Saunders as a Welsh international striker at Anfield.

He scored 13 Premiership goals from 22 starts in the 2005/06 season for Blackburn, and scored 17 overall. He is a boyhood Liverpool fan and an exciting player with pace to burn.

After springing to prominence at Norwich City then Coventry City it was under Sir Bobby Robson at Newcastle that Bellamy flourished into one of the most feared strikers in the Premiership. He was a big hit with the Toon Army, but however, he had a much publicised bust-up with former Liverpool manager Graeme Souness during the Scot's traumatic spell in the hot seat at St James' Park. He scored 43 goals in 128 appearances for Newcastle.

After a loan spell with Celtic he had the chance to join Everton just before the start of the 2005/06 season, but decided against a move following a meeting with Toffees boss David Moyes. He then teamed up with his former international manager Mark Hughes at Blackburn Rovers and proved a big success at Ewood Park before his dream move to Anfield came about.

Bellamy made his international bow for Wales in 1998 against Jamaica.

Rafa Benitez signed Jermaine Pennant in the summer of 2006 following a long search for a right winger.

The move was seen as an ideal opportunity for the youngster to establish himself as an England international after years of showing great promise.

Pennant began his career at Notts County but was snapped up by Arsenal at the age of 15. The fee of £2million was a new record for a trainee.

The midfielder made his debut aged just 16 in a League Cup match against Middlesbrough on November 20, 1999. It made him Arsenal's youngster ever player, though this record has since been broken by Cesc Fabregas.

Pennant had to wait until August 2002 for his league debut when he came on as a sub against West Ham. His first league start against Southampton in May 2003 saw him score a hat-trick.

Unfortunately for the young wideman these were to be his only goals for The Gunners as he failed to hold down a place in Arsene Wenger's side.

All the while he was making quite an impression on the international scene. Despite occasional disciplinary problems, he managed to accrue 24 England Under-21 caps - putting him in the all-time top 10 for appearances.

Domestically, Pennant was loaned out to Watford, Leeds United and Birmingham City. He eventually joined the latter on a permanent basis in April 2005 having made just 26 appearances for Arsenal.

The winger's impressive form at St Andrew's was born out by OPTA statistics, which revelead he provided more crosses than any other Premiership player in 2005-06. Despite this, Birmingham were relegated, and another transfer was inevitable if he was to further his career.

Liverpool secured Pennant's signature on July 26, 2006. Wearing the number 16 shirt vacated by Didi Hamann, he made his competitive debut in a Champions League qualifier against Maccabi Haifa on August 9.

After an initial settling-in period, the newboy began to make his mark, scoring his first goal on January 20, 2007 in a league victory over Chelsea. The boyhood Reds fan was one of the stand-out performers during the Champions League final defeat in Athens.
