A skilful forward who scored one goal every three games at Liverpool, Eric Anderson signed for the club in December 1951 when he was 20 years old.
He was given his debut on March 28, 1953 in a home fixture with Charlton Athletic but that was his only appearance of the 1952-53 season.
Anderson scored five times in 13 games the following season but it wasn't until 1954-55 that he really established himself in the side, playing in 32 of the league fixtures and contributing a further 10 goals.
He appeared fairly regularly over the next season-and-a-half before being replaced by the young Jimmy Melia, and Anderson moved on to Barnsley in July 1957.
