Rushy was an unbelievable striker. Many people have forgotten how good he was. He scored so many goals and back in the day the defenders were allowed to literally kill a striker
If he was English rather than Welsh he'd be celebrated more rather than just at Liverpool
I don't think one can forget how good Rushy was.The ghost.
Ian Rush is in my all time top 11. He defended from the front, no one was safe when he was on the pitch!
Words cannot describe how incredible Ian Rush was as a player and what he brought to Liverpool. Legend doesn’t begin to describe it. Godlike status. For me he invented the modern pressing striker and was the trigger. Was the key to winning.
Ian Rush - goal. Never have 3 words been more synonymous. Absolute legend.
exactly
Except when playing man utd in his first 20 games against them
Legend. Lucky enough to see him play live in his prime
Ian rush legend of our club and one of the greatest player in Liverpool history 🔥
Now subscribing to an Arsenal channel 😂😂😂
Rushie needs a statue in Liverpool or Flint, basically a 1 in 2 striker from 79 til 95. Amazing.
And to think that Michael Laudrup was sooo close to signing for Liverpool..We could have had Rush & Laudrup wearing Red and to think that King Kenny didn't ask him to come back he TOLD him he's going to sign...Love it..YNWA
So blessed to be a Liverpool Fan and have seen Rushie, Robbie's Dad😁 the best #9s we have ever seen. I can still see 86 and 89 FA Cup Finals in my head. 🙏🏾🇧🇧
This guy broke my heart! In 89 he was plastered on the front page of Shoot! magazine in a damn Everton shirt. I was absolutely gutted and can remember thinking "how could he". Turns out it was April fools day. 🤦🤣
I am 54 years old. Ian rush is quite simply the greatest goalscorer ive ever seen in my lifetime. Liverpool and wales legend.
Hey Colin - he was utterly devastating and I'm three years older than you so we span the same time but I can't get past Shearer.
@@jamesmaxwell3933 yeah i know where u r coming from. Ive always said, during the last 30 years during the premier league era, shearer and henry r the best 2 strikers ive seen in that time imo. Ian rush though, was just lethal in as much he cud have a quiet game, then 1 chance and goal!!!! Like i say, its all about personal opinions.
@@colingeddes2172 Shearer and Henry perhaps slightly different era in fairness. Stats though...
I was terrified of Rush - Ipswich Town fan (now in the bowels of the football league) but properly decent then...
@@jamesmaxwell3933 very much so. And u also had 1 of the greatest men in football as your manager the late great bobby robson. Im a southampton fan, and alan shearers wife went to school with my sister in law but thats another story. All the best for next season mate.
So kind. No crap but the Dell my absolute favourite away ground. All crap and higgledy-piggledy but what an atmosphere! Steve Moran, Steve Williams (Ivan Golac - what a goal ua-cam.com/video/PDoAq4IWN8A/v-deo.html ) and many more... went there many times but in two successive seasons saw us 1-3 up only for the games to finish 3-3 and 4-3. Aaaarrggghhhh!. Footie, we (still) love it!
Rushy a total legend, broke my red heart when he was sold to Juve
Born in 80. Got to see rush a few times. Great player. Had a great day at anfield 6-2 v spurs, 1-3 away at White Hart lane. If memory serves Robbie had his blonde hair. Great memories. Thanks 👍 Lfc
Cheers Robbie and Chris, top podcast again! Love Rushy, Liverpool and Wales legend ❤
Rushie & Robbie 🔴⚽️ LEGENDS ⚽️🔴😀👍
By far my favourite podcast
Ian Rush was my childhood hero. Growing up as an American military brat in the 70s and 80s while living at RAF Fairford. It was an amazing time. Fan and foe always respected Rush. #YNWA!!
Shout out to Kingston Bagpuize, Belamy Close
ABSOLUTELY hated him as a United fan.Just shows how great he was.
He couldn't buy a goal against Manchester United too which was crazy, wasn't his first ever in something mad like 1993?
@@garyphillips006 1992 was his first and what a way to do it stopped the mancs winning the league 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's a testament to Liverpool and United as clubs that we both had players that tortured the other and reached the pinnacle of English/European/World football, just strange we never had legendary teams competing at the same time, one of us is always dominating the other or neither of us is competing. Strange
@@garyphillips006 You are right, but by comparison, he couldnt stop scoring against Everton.
@@darthpepe2994 I wouldn't call Manchester United a big club compared to lfc. Its hard to rival united when they spent most of the time in the 2nd division.
Main years of my childhood when he was playing for Liverpool. Cried when he went to Juventus then loved it when he came back
Like most players that go abroad and return, he wasn't as good when he came back. A great striker though.
VAR would have caught rushes nose offside in the modern era, more times than not
Thank you very much Robbie, Chris and Tosh a great show.
My Hero growing up. The Legend and Absolute Goal Machine Ian Rush.
im a villa fan but imho opinion ian rush is the GREATEST ever striker
Original R9. Rush....Goal!!! YNWA 🔥🔥🔥
i never realised ROBBIE FOWLER was such a good speaker with a very good sense of humour
evertonian , have to say loving robbies podcasts, enjoyed that
Greatest striker in Liverpool history.
Rushie spot on about Collymore. I was only a teenager when Stan signed but I thought exactly the same. Reminded me of the power and pace of Ronaldo at PSV, just running OVER people and scoring with ease. First season, especially The Newcastle game, it was true. Unfortunately he didn't have the same mental strength as Ronaldo.
Absolute spot on.
Again top content! Im a united fan but this is the best podcast in football! Thanks guys for giving me a smile :)
Undr the cosh pisses all over it mate
@@BrentWillis2211 shite
@@BrentWillis2211 I love both podcasts
Two absolute legends (united fan).
These vlogs are brilliant - Thank you so much, for making them.
Hi great pod cast show you put on guys. Ian Rush what a legend of the club and 2nd best player of all time in Liverpool history I think. What a great fa cup winning Gole he scored thanks for all the great memories you gave us the Liverpool fans Ian.
Top stuff, as a school lad playing on the park when shooting at goal used to shout rush scores again for liverpool, takes me back top notch.
Legend of ANFIELD, Hero of The Kop, Striker Supreme Goal King Ian Rush We Salute You Sir! YNWA
His scoring record in the 1980s was incredible!
The stat that if Rushie scored, Liverpool didn't lose, lasted 200 goals!!
Thanks for all the cherished memories!
The best british striker ever
these podcasts are brilliant, they really are ! Thankyou so much :)
Pure Quality podcast guys 👍👍 keep them coming
It was actually an extremely heated argument between Bob Paisley and Ian Rush that turned Rushie into a ruthless goal-machine. Bob being a wily old fox knew how to push players buttons but in order to get the best out of Rushie who was at the time a softly spoken kid, he had to make him angry. Bob told him, you're not selfish enough, I signed you to score goals and you're not doing it. Rushie slammed the office door and said I'll show you, you bastard, scored loads in the reserves, got in the first team and then tormented defenders. Getting furious with Bob Paisley who was a genius was the making of him.
Great podcast lads, had some cracking guests and conversations. Keep up the good work :)
Lethal..this guy..im a utd fan but this guy was a special footballer🖒🖒
As a kid, I was always Ian Rush when we played football in the garages or on the skool playground. I think rushie is the reason ima Liverpool fan. Ynwa.
Fantastic podcast and a series of top notch guests on. Keep ‘em coming
Hands Down Ian Rush the greatest Liverpool player ever 😁👍😁👍
Ahh that’s tough, some other fans are gonna come and say Stevie or Kenny. Its a tough one to debate.
@@massivemock2017
I'm 16 but Gerrard is my favourite player.
The man carried us with some of the worst teams this club has had.
The desire and passion he had was unmatched.
Was the drive of the team for 10 odd years.
Rush basically invented the modern pressing scoring god role.
No sorry

These Liverpool Lads - they are so genuine and down to earth, despite all the glory. I can't think of a more positive, humble, respectful football club - just look at the diamonds they produced and all of them are just good people behind the talent. It pays tribute to the club founders and ethics which has been maintained for years and even in these modern times, the heart is still beating strong and the culture hasn't been disturbed. Very impressive indeed. Thanks lads.
I dunno. You'd like to think so but I met fowler in person about 10 years ago in Australia and I wasn't too impressed with him on a personal level.
@@keithp6699 whet he had a attitude problem ?
@@keithp6699 why?
Tell that to the 39 Juventus fans
Great to hear from footballing legends ... from an NUFC fan
Rush was the perfect striker. Right foot, left foot, headers, quick,hungry, clinical. Robbie was much the same, except not quite as quick but more skilful and more likely to hit a 25 yarder. Imo.
Robbie was Rushes equal at finishing but far far behind at the press and tackling back. I believe his quote was ‘it wasn’t my job’ meaning he was basically half the player. Rush was first line of defense. Robbie more associated with the first line of something else 😹 Robbie wanted to be a drinking era footballer in an era where Ferguson made Man U give up the alcohol. Gary Neville admits LfC were probably a better side but because MuFC drank less they won more. Spice Boys should have followed Souness advice.
My footballing idol in the 80s,one of the greats
Another quality podcast lads👏🏻
Great podcast Robbie keep the good work ♥️♥️♥️
What a player! He'd be worth 100 million in today's market.
spot on , he was a british record transfer fee at the time he went to juve aged 26 , im not sure if coutinho still is ,but that was 140m when he moved so i would suggest rush would easy command the same
X 2 unbelievable player
He would go for what mbappe and Harland will next move for
What ! 100 million ! Do you really want Ian to Rush you 🤣 ! Ian Rush is priceless 👍 YNWA
When he gets the ball.... He scores a goal... Ian.. Ian... Rush
Gers fan here this is the forth podcast of yours in a week great stuff Robbie. WATP
Enjoying watching these podcasts . Keep it going lads
Really enjoyed this thoroughly
Love Rushie live down the road from his house in caldy from North Wales myself used to go on the coach with Ian's dad Francie
This is outlandish and funny. Phone lines is brilliant.
How great was that?! True legend. A really good listen 👍
Rushie was born with a natural strikers Brain .I played against Rushie and his brothers growing up in Flint . Played against him at a very early age on Albert ab think he scored 9 goals .Great Lad Ian well all his brothers were great lads and great players too .
I'm a die-hard Liverpool fan since 1974/5 n Ian Rush is the best striker of all time. Just love his poaching skills.
the host is top class.
no hes not
Favorite podcast right now! Boss show fellas...YNWA.
Incredibly enjoyable podcast.... Rush and Fowler...quite a bromance! Rush one of the greats! Can't help thinking Barca would have suited his style more than Juve?
Brilliant story's ATB guys.. from Canada ;-)
Robbie loving these pod casts best ever in lfc history (pod cast history) nice to see you foud a nee vocation after you football career keep em coming natural chat and loads of it 😁👍YNWA...
Great podcast, great entertainment.
Brilliant podcasts Robbie lad, enjoying them all. Along with the greatest British striker of all time, Rush, Barnes & yourself are my favourite LFC players. Keep em coming...
The greatest British striker of all time is a man called jimmy mcgrory look him up ya halfwit and learn something 550 goals in all competitions 410 league goals 408 appearance not bad eh also scored 8 in 1 game a real LEGEND
In 86' i was part of a group on a day trip to Anfield. I tried on Rushie's left boot in the changing rooms. The next weekend he scored a hat trick against Everton.
Rushie was left footed!
My footballing hero, Ian Rush, absolute legend ♥️
Between him and Barnes for me
Loving them guests 🤘🏻
Nice to see these views starting to climb boys, my favourite podcast atm. 🙏
Legends everywhere.. and a greased up scotsman. 😂
I'm a mancunian Man City fan and I can say that without a shadow of a doubt, and no bias whatsoever Mr Ian Rush is a top shelf, bona fide LEGEND
My two Liverpool hero's in one podcast, Rushie the legend and Robbie, is just God
Lovin these podcasts. And you are right about the word legend Robbie it’s used far too liberally. Ian Rush is an absolute legend though and my favourite player ever
Seen him at Highbury in the 90 what a class player speed was unbelievable
Ian Rush never looked like he should be a good footballer but my god he was class!
In his prime RUSH always looked he would be a footballer a winner and had the speed of a GREYHOUND.
Great vid. Why did they all go private for a bit this week?
Robbie and Collymore were awesome I'm a Forest fan and was gutted when we sold Stan to Liverpool but they were fabulous to watch and Rushie wow I was born in 68 so I've seen Rushies whole career brilliant
My 1st footballing hero
where is episode 4 ? ... cannot find it
Just looking ay my comment 11 months previous.Says it all about Ian Rush
All time favourite number 9.
Great to see our legend's of lfc our big massive family ynwa
I’d love to see Rush Souness and Dalglish on the same podcast
Yes Rushie your Dad always took time to have a chat after our games at Flint
Waiting for the time stamps😂😂
I was in the Kop that night against Oulu. By the time Rushie came on we had started cheering for the poor Fins😂 Didn’t know that was his debut
Such an impressive striker..
Well said robbie
I'm 45 and I still wish I was Ian Ian rush .
I've watched the Gerrard, Souness, Dalgliesh & now Rush podcast and i cant help but think what they would all be worth in todays market in their prime including Robbie himself.
I think in todays inflated transfer market you would struggle to get 5 players for under half a billion pounds.
they'd all be at least 100mill, Gerrard and Kenny closer to 200 mill
@@jacksmith4460 I cant disagree with those valutions in the modern era when a £50m player can be average but all of they players performed at the highest level for club and country.........would Gerrard and Souness get into an all time liverpool midfield do you think ?
LEGEND
What a player rush was 🔥
Awesome podcast yet again keep it up .can you get Jamie carragher on at some point
Being a united fan in the 80s wasn't easy seeing Liverpool dominate, but you've got to say Ian rush was just lethal. Got to respect him even thought on the pitch we hated him. 😆
Wow what a funny humble legend . Ynwa
Fastest hour I’ve ever listened to
Legend
Something to be remembered with goal records is whether or not they took penalties so Rush and Andy Cole as well are actually very underrated
Rushie had a special room in The Conti in Liverpool where he would go to lower his scrotal wedge pressure
I've been a Liverpool fan all my life, i was about 5 years old when my dad took me to the game, i had a ball and a black marker pen and my dad said go get him to sign your ball ,so 5 years of age i ran after Ian rush and shouted ''rushy rushy '' Ian rush turned round and looked down at me and i said '' where's john barns?'' rush took my ball of me and signed my ball, I've been told that story by my dad and i remember the flags on the pub ceiling ,i wonder if Ian rush remembers that
Lovely story😊
been a liverpool fan all my life 🍌+ i’m old enough to remember the last title DIV 1 but RUSHY top bloke n true GS legend of LFC
UP THE POOL⚽️😁👍
