		A lively, tricky midfield player, Thompson's early performances at first team level were consistently good and Gérard Houllier must have been delighted to have him tied to a long term contract at Anfield.
		During the 1998/99 season he figured more than previous years and quickly grew to become a favourite among Liverpool supporters - his only goal of that season came in the drubbing of Southampton at Anfield when he was sent on as a substitute and scored the seventh of the afternoon within fifteen seconds.
		David's increasingly professional and dedicated attitude saw him turn in some man-of-the-match performances at the beginning of the 1999/2000 season, and he scored a fine individual goal against Sheffield Wednesday at the start of December.
