As the world's two most expensive keepers prepare to battle, Liverpool legend Bruce Grobbelaar explains why it's the hardest of all positions
Bruce Grobbelaar is in his element, holding court in a hotel in the shadow of Anfield.
On the walls are illustrations of some of Liverpool’s all-time greats. Roger Hunt and Ian St John, Tommy Smith and Ian Callaghan. Legends, all of them. Men who brought substance and success, who left memories and won medals. Men who helped mould the club into what it is today.
Grobbelaar, of course, falls into that category himself. Only eight players have made more appearances for the Reds, and it is hard to imagine too many going past his tally of 628 in the future.
