Liverpool is a place that is at ease with paying public homage to its footballing royalty.
A cursory wander around the city itself reveals as much, with artwork dedicated to a host of key figures, both past and present.
From the Jurgen Klopp mural on Jamaica Street, to the Ray Clemence-inspired piece at the corner of Wylva Road, right the way through to the Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jordan Henderson paintings just a stone's throw from Anfield, this is an area of the country that has always sought to immortalise the greats.
The club themselves have also adopted that same thought process of late.

It was back in November that Liverpool unveiled a brand new piece that saluted the efforts of a host of goalkeepers throughout history at the club's AXA Training Centre.
Created by local artist John Culshaw, the design features a number of iconic faces that included European Cup winners Jerzy Dudek and Bruce Grobbelaar.
Current incumbents Alisson Becker and Adrian also feature as two of the 13 shot-stoppers in the Kirkby commissioned by head of goalkeeping, John Achterberg, and while the eye-catching work adds a dash of colour to the acres of green at the £50m facility, there is also a more subtle reason for its existence.
"I think for everyone who comes out to train here, it’s a little bit of motivation seeing all the top goalies that have been here – and if they want to get there themselves, they have to produce," Achterberg said at the time.
“It tells something about the history of the club and what the goalkeepers have achieved here – and what the drive is from the club to achieve even more."
Since then, the club's attempt to create what Klopp describes as their "own philosophy in goalkeeping" have taken several steps forward.
It was announced at the end of November that the legendary Brazil keeper, Claudio Taffarel, would be joining Liverpool as another coach alongside Achterberg and assistant Jack Robinson.
Achterberg first met Taffarel back in 2018 when Brazil were in London using Tottenham's facilities ahead of a game but it was a firm recommendation from Alisson that helped pave the way for the 1994 World Cup winner to come aboard.
"I've always had in mind to have someone like him working with me daily because I work in the national team with him," Alisson said in December.
"I know his qualities, I know that he can contribute. I am really happy with John and Jack already and Taffa can bring us a lot of things."
Alisson's desire to see his national coach join him at club level predates his time with Liverpool, who he joined for a club-record fee for a goalkeeper of £65million in the summer of 2018.
One of Taffarel's main duties is to work with those who stay behind at the AXA Centre on match-days while Robinson and Achterberg are on the road with the team.
With Marcelo Pitaluga and Harvey Davies developing well and Loris Karius still on the books, they are given specialist coaching while the likes of Alisson, Caoimhin Kelleher and Adrian are with the rest of the squad.
The arrival of Taffarel led to some tentative speculation over the future of Achterberg, whose long-serving span dates back to 2009, but Klopp quickly explained in a press conference that the Dutchman had signed a new contract at Anfield.
Taffarel's playing achievements across a 101-cap career with Brazil dwarf those of former Tranmere Rovers man Achterberg, but the head of goalkeeping is a hugely influential figure behind the scenes.
Affectionately described as a 'goalkeeping maniac' by Klopp, he is often first in at the AXA Centre of a morning as he looks to keep his finger on the pulse and Liverpool at the cutting edge of the trends.
He routinely assesses the merits of dozens of keepers between the ages of 14-18 in an attempt to unearth a future star.
"John is incredible, pretty much like a goalkeeping book; he thinks of nothing else!" Klopp said last year.
Anfield sources have spoken about how the chance to work with a World Cup winner, even at a club as decorated as Liverpool, was seen as a big deal when Taffarel first arrived and his introduction was handled by assistant sporting director Julian Ward, who speaks Portuguese.
The World Cup winner's expertise has seen some Brazilian exercises introduced into the goalkeeping routines at the club.
Taffarel tells Liverpoolfc.com: “Brazilian football and goalkeeping is completely different in terms of style to England.
“In Brazil, a lot of the goalkeeping work is on technical things like movements and this is my role here: to work on these techniques with the senior goalkeepers and begin teaching the younger goalkeepers these techniques too.
“John and Jack work a lot on kicking and crosses: these are match situations and situations that are particularly specific to English football.
"Whereas I work a lot on positioning, the right positioning, and movements.”
Some at the club have spoken about the 29-year-old Alisson's capabilities to play on for the best part of another decade, with Achterberg recently naming a handful of others who he may look to replicate.
"You see Manuel Neuer is still going at the top level and he's nearly 36," Achterberg told The Athletic.
"Samir Handanovic is still playing regularly for Inter Milan at 37. Edwin van der Sar played until he was 40. Gianluigi Buffon isn't at the top level anymore, but is still playing at 43 for Parma."
However long Alisson continues at Anfield, Liverpool are adamant that his replacement will not need to cost close to the £65m they paid Roma to land him nearly four years ago.
The hope is that the dedication to the small details coupled with the never-ending search for the latest up-and-comers across the world will eventually negate the need to pay out tens of millions for future No.1s.
"We had to buy the best goalie in the world for big money," Klopp said last month. "That should not happen that often any more.
"We invest a lot in scouting and youth, and I think we have, in Marcelo Pitaluga and Harvey Davies incredible talents here.
"It cannot only be that we give them on loan and hope they develop at another club as well as we estimate.
"So maybe we can keep them longer here and work more, do different things so that they make a career here or wherever."
With Alisson at his peak, Pitaluga and Davies still in their teens and Kelleher an Ireland international at 23, the future of Liverpool's goalkeeping is, to quote the latest mural, "in safe hands".
