Jamie Carragher blindly ranks his top five Liverpool forwards of all time, while Mo Salah is only THIRD in his list…but which Reds icons are ahead of the Egyptian star?
- Carragher was challenged by Gary Neville to rank his top five Liverpool forwards
- The ranking was done blindly so he didn’t know who was next from the options
- The former Liverpool defender placed Mohamed Salah in third behind two icons
Jamie Carragher has blindly ranked his top five Liverpool forwards, while Mohamed Salah is only third on the list behind two icons.
The pundit sat next to Gary Neville as he was put to the test, with the former Man United defender bringing forward his Liverpool colleague, not knowing who would be next.
The popular trend left Carragher unable to backtrack on a decision and not knowing exactly who will be the next name for him.
Many Liverpool fans would have Salah as their number one choice, with the Egyptian already showing his class this year.
However, Carragher had Salah in the middle of the picks, with two icons ahead of him.

The first name Neville gave was that of Liverpool legend Ian Rush.
Carragher quickly put Rush at the top of his list, a bold move in the game of blind rankings.
Next was former Liverpool star Sadio Mane, who made the move to the Saudi Pro League this summer.
Carragher chose to put Mane in fourth place, a decision he would later regret.
Since numbers two, three and five were still open for Carragher, he was asked to include Kenny Dalglish in his list.
This led Marcel to say, ‘Now he’s in trouble’.

To which Carragher responded, “I thought they were just forwards, goalscorers!”
The former Liverpool defender then confidently put his old manager Dalglish second on the list.
Next up was Fernando Torres, a former teammate of Carragher.
Despite playing together, Carragher brutally placed him fifth, behind Mane and Co.
In the end, Salah had to end up in third place as he reflected on his ranking at the end of the video.
“I got Dalglish and Rush wrong,” he said.
Neville then asked Carragher, “Would you put Salah in there with Rush?”, to which the former Red disagreed.
“Right behind him,” he said before thinking about his list. “I probably took one out.”
Neville was also tasked with ranking former Manchester United defenders, with se
Later it was Neville’s turn to rank former Man United players as he was tasked with placing the defenders in his blind ranking.
The former full-back had Japp Stam in first place, with Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic in second and third.
Steve Bruce was fourth before Laurent Blanc closed his blind ranking in last place.
No doubt Neville and Carragher would have had a different ranking if they hadn’t been so blind, but that’s the fun of the game.
