I was so angry that I didn’t listen' - Liverpool midfielder blamed social media for exit that left him in tears There is more of an awareness now of the damage caused by the cortisone injections many players of the 1960s and 70s used to regularly take to get them through games, with many suffering severe mobility problems in retirement as a result, but there is perhaps a misguided perception that in the modern game with all the sports science and top-level medical expertise involved that players can now continually smash through their physical limits without consequence.

In previous interviews, the striker has said that the inkings on his right arm represent his parents and family members. This new design contained the words ‘Liverpool Football Club’ for the first time, as well as a shift toward the shield form that has since been a mainstay of the club’s emblem. This variation existed previous to its placement on the 1987-88 season’s kit. But after retiring from football in 2016 at the age of 31, the former defender took his artistic passion to new heights.

It was 15 years ago today that Liverpool signed a young Danish defender by the name of Daniel Agger. People talk about the Chelsea semi-finals but the last-16 tie against Barcelona was the best atmosphere I ever experienced at Anfield”, he told the Athletic. “That was one of the best Barca teams ever with Ronaldinho. They had won the Champions League the season before but somehow we managed to win 2-1 over there. I remember Carra and me looking at each other in the Camp Nou after we went 1-0 down and thinking, ‘This could be bad’. Carra and me complemented each other well. We were different types but we had a similar attitude and winning mentality. You could always rely on Carra. As a young player settling into a new team it was good to have someone like him alongside me. Football isn’t about what’s your top level, it’s about what’s your bottom level and his was very high. The noise at Anfield when we walked out for the second leg against Barca, I’d never felt anything like that. I saw in the faces of their players that they were thinking the same.” As rumoured on social media, Szoboszlai confirmed that he has a tattoo inspired by the Liverpool legend on his arm.

Alexis Mac Allister snapped up the no.10, vacated by Sadio Mane one year ago, whilst Luis Diaz coverted his no.23 to no.7 last week.

Previously, the club had gone with a more simple logo that featured a single Liver bird. This was the first logo to appear on a uniform, appearing on the white jersey worn in the 1950 FA Cup final defeat to Arsenal.He'd go on to establish himself as a huge Liverpool fan favourite, spending eight and a half years with the club.

In 2014 after returning to Brondby, the centre-half was pictured giving a fan of the club a tattoo and more recently shared a picture tattooing a Liver Bird to a Liverpool fan's foot.

My head went as my hero was battering me' - Kenny Dalglish scathing phone message to Liverpool defender who proved him wrong The club also had an alternate crest in the late 1940s, which was used on goods, matchday programmes, letterheads, and other items. It may be recognisable to followers of a particular East Lancs Road team, who went on to adopt a similar design in the 1960s. Liverpool’s last recorded use was in the early 1980s. When I was a child, to be honest I didn’t watch that much football but of course when it was Champions League or a big game, I was watching Liverpool, the big teams and also the big players – and he was one of the biggest." The Hungary international also revealed a special link Gerrard, when asked by the club why he opted to take no.8. PSV Eindhoven were swept aside with ease in the last eight and, for the third year running, Benitez’s men were pitched against Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea in a major cup semi-final. A Joe Cole effort decided the first leg at Stamford Bridge in favour of the Londoners and Agger endured a difficult night after being targeted by Didier Drogba, coming in for criticism afterwards particularly from the Danish media who questioned the 22-year-old’s ability to play at the highest level. “You don’t need to worry about Daniel Agger, he’s going to be a top player for years to come”, Jamie Carragher told the assembled media before the Anfield second leg with manager Benitez also offering a ringing endorsement and big show of faith in his young defender’s capabilities. “Agger will learn from his experience against Drogba”, the Liverpool manager asserted. “Drogba can cause problems for some of the best defenders in the world. Daniel will be an even better player every time he plays in games such as this. He’ll have an outstanding game in the second leg. I’m sure of this. He’s that type of character.”
