1. Lucas Leiva /// Joined: July, 2007

If you look real quick it’s as if this is a picture of Fernando Torres.

But Lucas, as most knew, is Liverpool’s most tenured player by far, joining four years prior to Henderson.

Lucas has accrued 313 appearances for the club and is fighting for his future, as it seems he is every year. The Brazilian is annually linked with a move away from the club but this might be the year that he actually goes, giving Liverpool no players at the club for more than five years.
