"I am going to start with Mr. Liverpool, and that is Ian Callaghan. He always has to be in any top 10, for me. Obviously, I didn't see him play too much, I've seen lots of video footage of him. But the appearances he's got, I think 857, will never, ever be beaten."
"A local lad and a player that, what really sort of fascinates me and I think is absolutely amazing, is this was a man who was part of getting Liverpool out of the Second Division. Obviously, Bill Shankly does that as the manager, he's part of that team."
