7. Dixie Dean€™s Goalscoring Record Will Never Be Broken

Try as they might, no Liverpool striker is likely to match the goalscoring exploits of legendary Everton striker William Ralph €˜Dixie€™ Dean, who netted 60 times during the 1927-28 season. The Toffee€™s all-time leading scorer was the Lionel Messi of his day and his goal tally during that campaign still stands as a British record. Roger Hunt holds the Liverpool gong for most league goals in a season with 41, while Ian Rush€™s record return of 47 in all competitions is still some way off Dean€™s superhuman feat. Although Dean once lost testicle in the field of play, the celebrated Everton hardman still had more balls than the current Liverpool squad combined.
