Harry 'Smiler' Chambers sent fear into the opposition with his ferocious left foot shot, and averaged a goal every two games.
Chambers topped the Liverpool goal charts in the first five post-World War One seasons, and played a pivotal role in the Reds winning two consecutive championships in 1922 and 1923.
He scored a memorable hat-trick in a 5-1 win over Everton at Anfield in October 1922 and also won eight caps for England during his time at Liverpool, scoring four goals.
Harry continued to score with great regularity and was the club's only ever-present during the 1925-26 & 1926-27 League seasons. He left Liverpool for West Brom in 1928, having averaged almost a goal every two games, but was used as a centre half by the Baggies.
After retiring from the game he continued to play the game he loved for Shropshire team Oakengates until he was 52. He died in 1949.
Honours with Liverpool: First Division Championship 1921-22, 1922-23
