A player from our history

David Burrows

David "Bugsy" Burrows was a few days short of his twentieth birthday when Kenny Dalglish signed the no-nonsense left-back from West Bromwich Albion. He went straight into the team for a home match against Coventry just two days later and would go on to make a further 20 league appearances before the end of a season that was overshadowed by the Hillsborough tragedy.

Kop Quote

Suso after signing his first professional contract with Liverpool on 22 November 2010

I had good offers from them (Barcelona and Real Madrid). I was going to sign for Real Madrid but one day before it the phone rang and Rafael Benitez spoke to me. He convinced me that Liverpool was the club for me and after that I had to change my plans. I was going to come to Liverpool. I have always liked the Premier League more than La Liga and I decided that it would be better for me to come here - even with the English weather!"
