I think he is definately uip there in the midst of legendary liverpool strikers, probably one of the most consistant strikers to roam this earth. He scored almost 90% of his goals in the bottom corner, sidenetting. Unbelievable.

I know that owen and torres spring to mind nowadays when you think liverpool strikers, because they are more prolific, but rush is a legendary striker and will never be forgotten by true liverpool fans

He's the most prolific. But I think mighty mouse and King Kenny are better

Torres is an amazingly big contender but I don't really think he will beat the prolific records that Ian Rush has set. He is prolific and a legendary goalscorer. Owen as well can be counted as a great player because he was excellent and most people will say he was good for his age at that time. Ian Rush scored absolutely loads of goals as Liverpool's top scorer and I really respect him and look up to him. I watch videos of him on Youtube because as the best striker ever for Liverpool based on facts you can easily learn how to finish like I'm by watching videos on him and watching him placing the ball in to the net with such precision. I really think he is the best ever Liverpool player, and not just striker. Torres may overcome him some time soon in the future but for now we can cerainly count him as the best striker and player ever for the Reds. He was mighty and strong and never gave up. I think he was really powerful and really was mainly the one who guided Liverpool to all their titles at that time despite other players

The best in my lifetime have been Rush, Fowler and Owen. None of their post-Anfield careers could ever match up.

Robbie Fowler was the one that I managed to see the most, though. Unfortunately, most times I saw him he was dismantling the Villa defence! I have never laid eyes on a more clinical and natural finisher than Robbie Fowler.

But Torres has the potential to overtake him, I think. He shows the same coolness in and around the box but he has a much more professional attitude outside of the game, as far as I can see

For me its either fowler, dalgish or torres. But rush sure is the fastest scorer of liverpool

No doubt about Rush.... He was amazing.... I watched 2 months ago some of the old Liverpool matches!He was the goalgetter nr. 1.... When Torres keeps on then he is on the way to be the best player of Liverpools history

I would say but for robbie fowlers injury, he would have surpassed them all, never the same player after his injury. Hence they got shot of him

I think Rush was the best in terms of scoring goals for Liverpool!

Michael Owen, Robbie Fowler and now Fernando Torres are all world class strikers, and they have all done great things for the club, but none of them have ever won a league title with Liverpool. Rush won countless trophies with Liverpool including the European cup twice and I doubt that, with Torres being one of the greatest strikers in the world right now, even Fernando could break Rush's goal record of 346 for the club

Couldn`t tell you who is the best between rush and dalglish, however who is the best combination of strikers to play for liverpool. Both rush and dalglish had good partners up front when they played, also fowler and owen would be near the top of the list

They both really good contenders but I think by about 1 percent torres is a titch bit better

Torres is a bit better then rush I would say.... I never got to see rush play as much as Torres I have seen him only in past videos scoring some beautiful goals.... From them I can say he was a clinical finisher.... On the other hand Robbie Fowler was also one of my all time favorite.... But my vote would go to Torres as he is a complete striker excellent pace, finishing, height, ball control, headers, strength to hold off a defender.... You name it and he has it...

Rushie had a great record for Pool. He is the Lineker kind of striker, never doing much but a real predator in the box. The modern equivalent would be Fillipo Inzaghi.

However I do think the game has moved on and Rushie would not be that successful in the modern game. The game now requires players with more technical skills and alot more pace and power, all which Rushie lacks.
