Profile

A versatile inside right/centre forward, Bimpson proved to be a handful for the Division Two defences during his time with Liverpool.

Four goals in five appearances and 11 in 15 in seasons 1957-58 and 1958-59 respectively showed he had a knack for delivering the goods. He was given his debut at Aston Villa on March 7, 1953 and played in seven more league games before the end of the season, scoring three goals.

His most productive season for the club was in 1953-54, when he hit the net 12 times in 24 league matches. On his day he could be brilliant, a hat-trick against Manchester United in August 1953 and four against Burnley all in the first half at Anfield a month later prove that. But he was never considered to be a regular in the side and when Dave Hickson arrived from Goodison in November 1959, Louis faded out of the first-team picture altogether and was quickly transferred to Blackburn Rovers.
