Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An official product of the Club, and the perfect gift for the Kopite in your life This collection contains more than 185 quotes on Liverpool Football Club from legendary players, great managers, famous fans, and envious opponents. Liverpool's place in English soccer's hierarchy is recognized around the world and almost every high-profile star on the move gets linked with the Anfield club. Under manager Brendan Rodgers, Liverpool remain the benchmark for success. Title No. 19 remains the Holy Grail, but cup success is a common theme, including the record-setting eighth League Cup success in 2012. No British club is close to matching Liverpool's eight cup victories in Europe, and they came within inches of achieving another eight-timer, this time in the FA Cup two months later. From Alan Hansen and Graeme Souness through Michael Owen, Robbie Fowler, and Jamie Redknapp to Jamie Carragher and Steven Gerrard, few clubs can boast as many people with so much to say for themselves, especially in the case of ex-manager Bill Shankly, English soccer's most quoted man. Liverpool have a proud tradition and a very loyal support, and this book captures the flavor of both.
