FeatureKop 10: Liverpool's all-time top scorers at Anfield

The Egyptian’s 104th and 105th home goals for the Reds moved him clear of Sir Kenny Dalglish and Steven Gerrard into outright sixth place on that list.

Naturally, the Anfield-specific ranking bears many similarities to the club’s list of overall most prolific players – but there are some subtle differences.

In 10th place, for example, you find Dick Forshaw, three places higher than on the total ranking.

That contrast is a result of Forshaw, whose strike rate helped Liverpool clinch back-to-back league titles in 1921-22 and 1922-23, netting 70 per cent of his goals for the club in home fixtures (87 of 124).

It’s a similar story for Harry Chambers, another prolific member of that 1920s side. He sits ninth for most goals at Anfield with 97, one place higher than his position in the overall list (10th with 151).

Locked together in joint-seventh place for Reds goals at home are Dalglish and Gerrard, who each finished their careers with 104 Anfield strikes.

The latter had leapfrogged the former on the overall goals ranking before bidding farewell in 2015, by virtue of 14 goals more on the road (Gerrard 82 to Dalglish’s 68).

Salah, who has already broken in to the top five for all goals at LFC, now sits in sixth for Anfield strikes and sets about chasing down Robbie Fowler in fifth on the chart. Of Fowler’s 183 total efforts in a Liverpool shirt, 63.9 per cent were at home (117).

The identities and order of the top four are exactly the same on both lists, however.

Billy Liddell is in fourth position with 137 Anfield goals and 228 overall, behind third-placed Gordon Hodgson (159 at home, 241 in total) and Roger Hunt in second (173 and 285 respectively).

And still sitting above them all is the legendary Ian Rush. The Welshman’s tally of 346 for the Reds is fairly evenly split between goals at home (185) and away (161).
