Grobbelaar was the fourth South-African born goalkeeper that Liverpool had signed and would prove to be the best of the lot.

An error-strewn and inconsistent start to his career at Liverpool saw Grobbelaar get off on the wrong foot with the Anfield faithful, often being blamed for poor results and being lambasted by the local media. Grobbelaar is perhaps remembered best for his performance in the European Cup Final against Roma. That was one of many titles that Grobbelaar lifted at Liverpool.

The South African born Chilean international had the perfect debut for Liverpool, coming off the bench in a Champions League tie against Maccabi Haifa to score the winning goal in the 88th minute. His career at Anfield never really took off though, and he left just a year after joining having played 36 games for the club.
