DAVID PRENTICE: Fernando Torres record makes him one of Anfield’s greatest

ASK for a list of Anfield's greatest ever goalscorers and the same, familiar, names are trotted out like a mantra.Rush, Fowler, Hunt, Dalglish, Owen, maybe Hodgson and Liddell if you're a proper student of Anfield marksmen.The order may change, depending on your age, but not the names.One voracious goal-getter who should always be included, but is often overlooked, is John Aldridge.And that has always astonished me.Aldridge's goalscoring record, wherever he played, is a phenomenon of the modern sporting age. And at Anfield he was at his prolific peak.Which is why Fernando Torres' record deserves open-mouthed amazement.The goal Torres clipped past Chris Kirkland on Wednesday night was his 61st in his first 100 Liverpool matches.That exactly matches the strike ratio achieved by Aldridge.
