Neil Mellor made just 22 first-team appearances for Liverpool, managing six goals.
They are not exactly statistics of a player who should be well remembered, but a lot of the club’s fans still think about Mellor’s stunning goal against Arsenal.
Indeed, the former striker scored an absolute belter against the Gunners in November 2004, helping secure a 2-1 victory with the 90th-minute effort.
Mellor was eventually forced to retire in 2012 due to a knee injury, but the 37-year-old now regularly works as a pundit for Liverpool’s official television channel.
It was actually the Englishman’s birthday on Monday, and Liverpool’s official Twitter account were on hand with a special message for him.

That led to a number of the club’s fans taking to social media to comment on Mellor and indeed his long-range strike, which was, of course, attached to Liverpool’s birthday post.
