Goalkeepers and defenders:

Jerzy Dudek

Sander Westerveld

Jamie Carragher

Stephane Henchoz

Steve Harkness

Abel Xavier

Bjorn Tore Kvarme

Rob Jones

Despite one or two questionable inclusions for a ‘legends’ game (Abel Xavier, anyone?), fans will no doubt be delighted to see the likes of Jerzy Dudek, Jamie Carrghae and Stephane Henchoz lining up at the back this weekend.

Midfielders:

Jason McAteer

Salif Diao

Patrik Berger

Luis Garcia

Steve McManaman

Harry Kewell

David Thompson

Vladimir Smicer

Again, Salif Diao surely doesn’t qualify as a Liverpool legend, but Steve McManaman, Harry Kewell and Luis Garcia should be great to watch together in the middle of the park.

Forwards:

Michael Owen

Craig Bellamy

Robbie Fowler

Manager: Ian Rush

Some big names up front, plus an all-time striking legend Ian Rush as manager for this Liverpool legends XI.
