(Reuters) - Tough-tackling midfielder Graeme Souness was the engine room of Liverpool's great team of the late 1970s and early '80s and the no-nonsense Scot made a huge impression on and off the pitch.
He recently hit the headlines for telling Manchester United's France playmaker Paul Pogba, who claimed he didn't know who Souness was, to put his medals on the table.
While he thought the incident would upset the Galatasaray officials, Souness instead earned eternal fame for his actions. Souness's influence was felt on the pitch, where he won 54 caps for Scotland from 1974-86, but also from the dugout when he joined Rangers as player-manager in April 1986 and kick-started one of the Glasgow club's most successful eras.
Although he was a Liverpool hero during his playing career, Souness disappointed as manager at Anfield from 1991-94.
