Billy Dunlop: 363 appearances
Just two months on from Billy Dunlop arriving at Anfield from Abercorn in early 1895, Liverpool suffered relegation to the second tier.
But, from that point onward, the defender's career with the Reds followed an upward trajectory.
The once-capped Scotland international helped LFC to promotion the next season and remained a regular throughout his 15 years on Merseyside.
By the time he retired in 1909, he had two league titles to his name.
