PROFILE
An integral part of one of the most entertaining sides in post-war Liverpool history,
Beardsley cost manager Kenny Dalglish a then British record 1.9 million pounds from
Newcastle in the summer of 1987.
He arrived at Anfield a month after his fellow England star John Barnes and, with another
recent recruit John Aldridge, they formed a menacing trio in Dalglish's re-shaped team
following Ian Rush's departure to Juventus.
Beardsley, who won 59 caps and skippered his country, was a potent blend of enthusiastic
commitment, sublime skills and predatory finishing instincts. Those qualities shone as
Liverpool swept to the title in swashbuckling style in his first season. Beardsley scored
15 goals as Liverpool equalled the record of 29 top-flight games unbeaten from the start
of the season and lost only two of their 40 matches.
He collected a second title medal in 1989-90 with an FA Cup winners medal sandwiched
between the championship successes. After four years at Anfield, in which he scored 58
goals in 173 appearances, new manager Graeme Souness sold him to Everton for 1 million
pounds and Beardsley went on to equal David Johnson's feat of scoring Mersey derby winners
for both clubs.
