Delight in the magical qualities of 20 mere mortals elevated to cult status by the Red half of Liverpool This celebration is devoted to 20 players who, over the years, have won a special place in the hearts of the Anfield faithful--not necessarily the greatest soccer players, but a unique brotherhood of mavericks and stalwarts, local lads and big signings. The cast list alone is enough to stir up memories and tug at the heartstrings of any Reds fan--Elisha Scott, Billy Liddell, and Joey Jones, Craig Johnston, Jamie Carragher, and Luis Suarez--recalling how these charismatic personalities ignited passion on the terraces. Find out which Red icon was left at a highway service-station as a prank, which striker was involved in a punch-up with Italian waiters after a European Cup semi in Milan, and which skipper was carried through Lime Street station on the shoulders of fans.
