Basic information about theclub
LFC is a professional association football club based in Liverpool, Merseyside, England.
They compete in the Premier League, the top tier of English football. The club was
founded in 1892 and joined the Football League the following year. The club has played at
Anfield since its formation. Liverpool established itself as a major force in both English
and European football during the 1970s and 1980s when Bill Shankly and Bob Paisley
led the club to 11 League titles and seven European trophies.

The club holds many long-standing rivalries, most notably the North West Derby against
Manchester United and the Merseyside derby with Everton.

Liverpool is the ninth highest-earning football club in the world for 2018–19, with a annual
revenue of $613 million, and the world's eighth most valuable football club in 2016,
valued at $2.183 billion.
Anfield Road
Anfield was built in 1884 on land adjacent to Stanley Park. It was originally used by
Everton before the club moved to Goodison Park after a dispute over rent with
Anfield owner John Houlding. Left with an empty ground, Houlding founded
Liverpool in 1892 and the club has played at Anfield ever since.
Famous Kop- The Kop was built in 1906 due to the high turnout for matches and
was called the Oakfield Road Embankment initially. Its first game was on the 1st of
September 1906 when the home side beat Stoke City 1–0. In 1906 the banked
stand at one end of the ground was formally renamed the Spion Kop after a hill in
KwaZulu- Natal. The hill was the site of the Battle of Spion Kop in the Second Boer
War, where over 300 men of the Lancashire Regiment died, many of them from
Liverpool and today this stand has taught the others to sing.

Anfield could accommodate more than 60,000 supporters at its peak.

Shankly Manager Players
Liverpool would not be the famous
football club it is today if not for Bill
Shankly. The Scotsman was manager
of Liverpool FCfrom 1959 to 1974,
taking the team from the English
second division to the top of the table,
winning league titles, FACup and one
UEFACup, and laying the groundwork
for the European Cup-winning years
that followed hisretirement. Supporters
Shankly’s work ethic and extreme
dedication to football—made
immortal by his famous “life and
death” quote—were matched by his
quick wit and ability to conjure
memorable phrases.
