Jamie Carragher's 10 Greatest Liverpool Moments

8. Becoming The Second Highest Appearance Maker For Liverpool

jamie carragher One of Jamie Carragher's best individual honours has got to be becoming Liverpool's second highest appearance maker. By becoming the second highest appearance maker for Liverpool, Carragher can boast a career that heralded more games than the likes of Ray Clemence, Emlyn Hughes and Ian Rush. It is truly a great feat that Carragher has outlasted these legends of Liverpool history. Only an elite group of players can reach it to 700 games in their club careers - never mind 700 games for the same club! To achieve this you need to remain mostly injury free and do well in the cup competitions to acquire those extra appearances that boost your total. Carragher has achieved both these things year after year and he is right up there with other Premier League legends such as Scholes, Giggs and Shearer. JC is also the player with the most European appearances for Liverpool - emphasising how well Liverpool have done on the European stage for most of his career. These European appearances include four semi finals, three major finals and a Super Cup win.
