3. Jamie Redknapp

This might be a stretch, but Redknapp did play 16 times for Southampton in 2004 so he technically qualifies for this list.

In over a decade of work at Anfield, the exciting Redknapp recorded 55 goal contributions from his 243 appearances in all competitions.

He was a dynamic midfielder that could play deep as a playmaker or further up the pitch driving the attack as needed. His playing style was truly ahead of its time in the midfield.

He was Liverpool's youngest player to appear in a European competition when he was just 18 years old, which was unheard of at that time. This path would lead him to ultimately becoming Liverpool's captain which is no small feat for any player in their career.

He had outstanding passing vision and range as he could see runs before the forwards even made them in real-time. Combine this with his long-range shooting ability and he was a true nightmare scenario for defenders to handle.

He could play the ball with both feet without hesitation and his lethality from set-pieces made him an almost indispensable player for the Reds and a worthy inclusion on this list.
