The club

Liverpool Football Club is founded the March 15th 1892 following a financial dissension between the direction of the club of Everton and the owner of the ground of Anfield used until there by the club. Everton leaves Anfield for Goodison Park, while Liverpool FC replaces it and carries out its beginnings in the championship of the Lancashire. Liverpool FC is allowed in the championship of England by the League in 1893, adopts a red and white behavior, and gains its first title in 1901.

The size of Liverpool FC merges with the arrival of its manager Bill Shankly in 1959, which decides that the players will be vêtus very of red (shirt, shorts and socks) in order to impress the adversary. Thanks to Shankly, the club finds the 1st division and conquers many national titles. Liverpool starts to be made a name in Europe and gains finally its first UEFA Cup in 1973.

Under the direction of Bob Paisley then of Joe Fagan Liverpool will forge a prize list of legend, in particular gaining four successes out of Cut of the Clubs champions between 1977 and 1984. During the final of 1985 disputed by Liverpool and the Juventus of Michel Platini takes place the Drame of Heysel, which results in the death of thirty-nine supporters. The madness of the Hooligan S will put the English clubs at the round of applause of Europe during five years. Liverpool FC was to be isolated European competitions during one decade, the sanction was then reduced to six years.

As managing, Kenny Dalglish offers to the club its last major successes on the national scene, but Liverpool is once again struck by the tragedy in 1989, this time at Hillsborough where 96 supporters find death (see Tragédie of Hillsborough). Its successors Graeme Souness then Roy Evans cannot compete with Manchester United, which is distinguished in England and Europe.

Shouldered during one short period by Roy Evans, Gerard Houllier is then named to manage club and under its direction Reds carry out incredible a large slam in 2001 by gaining five trophies. To crown the whole, Michael Owen obtains the Ballon of gold. Nevertheless, Liverpool cannot still compete with Manchester and Arsenal in championship. Victim of an mild heart attack on October 13rd, 2001 at the time of a match against Leeds United, Gerard Houllier must undergo a serious open-heart operation and put between brackets its functions to Liverpool. It carries out a triumphal return to Anfield later a few months, while Reds complete their championship in convincing a second place. But in spite of a new championship victory of the League in 2003, the history of love between Houllier and Liverpool start to end. Leaders and supporteurs reproach him more and more the irregular performances of the team, and at the conclusion of the season 2003-2004, the contract of Houllier is not renewed. It is replaced in 2004 by the old coach of Valence, Rafael Benítez, and at the end of the season 2004-2005 Liverpool gains its fifth Ligue of the champions to the shootings with the goal vis-a-vis the Milan AC, after being led 3 to 0 at the half-time.

In October 2006, after a five months account-with-wrong way, a vote to which took to share 110.000 people, indicates Kenny Dalglish like the player having more marked Kop, in front of Steven Gerrard, Ian Rush, Robbie Fowler and John Barnes.

May 1st, 2007, Liverpool is qualified for the final of the League of Champions by beating Chelsea with the shootings with the goal. Finally of this same League of the Champions Liverpool inclines itself on the score of 2 goals to 1, vis-a-vis its rival, the Milan AC.

To date, Liverpool FC remains the club more titrated of England.

At the time of season 2007/2008, the vice-champions of the league of the champions in title have problems in this competition where they do not manage to take off after three days with only one point and two defeats respectively in residence vis-a-vis the Olympique of Marseilles and in Turkey with the Besiktas Istanbul.
