    • Appearances: 153

    • Goals: 32

    A talented inside-forward, Kevin Baron played as an amateur for his hometown club Preston North End before arriving at Liverpool.

    He made six league appearances in the 1947-48 season but the side that had won the championship the previous year was fairly settled and Baron's youth and lack of experience kept him on the sidelines for a while.

    His big breakthrough came in the 1949-50 campaign, when he only missed four league matches and also played in Liverpool's FA Cup final team against Arsenal at Wembley.

    Baron played only seven matches the next year but in 1951-52 missed just two of the club's 42 league fixtures and scored six goals in those 40 games.

    An impressive nine goals were scored from 27 league matches the following season, but in May 1954 he left Liverpool and joined Southend United.
