Most expensive Liverpool XI of all time: a Suarez for every Carroll

ST- Fernando Torres (£20.2m)

Despite the circumstances in which he left, the two transfer dealings we did involving Fernando Torres were excellent business. We brought him in when he was one of Europe’s best strikers, no question, and sold him for nearly £30m profit when he looked a shell of his former self. Chelsea only saw the best of him when he was wearing our shirt.

ST- Andy Carroll (£35m)

Unfortunately, Andy Carroll remains something of a blemish at the club as our record signing. One decent season for Newcastle in the Championship seemed to do enough to persuade the board to spend £35m as a direct replacement for the departing Fernando Torres. Injuries and poor form blighted his time at Anfield, before a £15m move away in 2013. Now he’s West Ham’s problem.

ST- Luis Suarez (£22.8m)

Arguably the best bit of business we’ve done either on or off the pitch. Luis Suarez was electric during his time at Anfield, therefore it’s a shame that his time will be very much remembered for the controversial incidents. He managed to win the golden boot – as well as most of the other individual awards – in his final season before a £75m move to Barcelona.
