Graeme Souness
Graeme Souness was a formidable and combative midfielder who joined Liverpool from Middlesbrough in 1978 and became captain of one of the most successful teams in the club's history. Renowned for his passing range, tactical intelligence and uncompromising presence, Souness lifted three European Cups and five league titles during his six years at Anfield. He left Liverpool for Sampdoria in 1984, and later returned to the club as manager between 1991 and 1994, though his playing career remains the period for which he is most fondly remembered by supporters.
