The new life of Ian Rush, the Wales football legend who still lives with one regret

At Liverpool, Ian Rush pretty much won it all. Playing in one of the greatest sides in English football history, an incredible 18 trophies from his time at Anfield includes five First Division titles, five League Cups, three FA Cups, and two of the club's six European Cups.

Add to that his individual accolades, including European and First Division Golden Boots and a host of PFA awards, and the legendary striker - who is still the club’s record goalscorer with a seemingly insurmountable 346 goals - is left with a footballing CV among the most remarkable the game has ever seen.

But despite the numerous broken records and stacks of silverware, Rush admits he still looks back on his illustrious career with one regret: never leading his beloved Wales to a major tournament.
