Tommy Smith

Thomas Smith (5 April 1945 – 12 April 2019) was an English footballer, who played as a defender at Liverpool for 16 years from 1962 to 1978. Known for his uncompromising defensive style, manager Bill Shankly once said of him: "Tommy Smith wasn't born, he was quarried". Nicknamed the "Anfield Iron", Smith was a central defender for most of his Liverpool career, and his most memorable moment for the club probably came when he scored Liverpool's second goal in the 1977 European Cup final against Borussia Mönchengladbach.
