What do we think?
Traore made 141 appearances for the Reds and was brought to the club by Gerard Houllier. He made his debut on the 14th September 1999 and went on to win the FA Cup, League Cup and the UEFA Champions League.
In 2006, he left Anfield to sign for Charlton Athletic in a deal reportedly worth £2.52m (via Transfermarkt.co.uk) and went on to represent Portsmouth and Birmingham City amongst others.
It’s clear from the responses above that these fans still hold their former player in high regard.
