When West Ham were demanding transfer fees ranging from £6m to something nearer £10m for Yossi Benayoun, Reds fans laughed.
Even when the Israeli international arrived for a more modest £5m, there were plenty of raised eyebrows.
But Benayoun has proved himself to be the epitomy of the invaluable modern squad player.
Capable of playing a variety of roles, capable of scoring vital goals, he’s even prepared to accept that he won’t be playing every week.
His form at present, however, ensures that he should be. Benayoun has been a shaft of light in a mixed month for Liverpool Football Club, and a better addition to the Liverpool squad than many expected.
