Two hat-tricks (January 2008 and September 2009)

Benayoun had already bagged a treble in the 8-0 Champions League win over Besiktas before the period in question – during which he struck two more LFC hat-tricks.

The tricky midfielder racked up three as the Reds twice came from behind to eventually see off Havant & Waterlooville in the FA Cup fourth round at Anfield.

And the Israeli, who weighed in with 29 goals during his Liverpool career, repeated the feat almost two years later with a calmly-taken trio as Burnley were beaten 4-0 on home soil.
