"Bob had taken over from this God-like man Bill Shankly. Bob got used to the job and his association with Geoff Twentyman to bring in talented kids paid dividends and another man who was important to Bob Paisley was Tom Saunders. He confided in him with whom he was going to replace Kevin Keegan with in '77. It transformed the club again. He was never afraid. What I liked about Bob that he was never afraid to break up a winning formula. Whatever he achieved he was always looking to strengthen. We knew we were going to get a new face in pre-season. I signed in October. Ray Kennedy had been brought in the summer as Bill Shankly's last signing. Terry Mac came after me. An established player in midfield, runs ahead of the ball. Then there would be another one before the end of the season, usually before March. That was the pattern every year. Whatever you won you knew somebody was going to come in and take your place. You could either stay and fight or as I saw other people just leave. Joey Jones left when Alan Kennedy arrived. Soon as Ray Clemence knew Brucie was in the frame he was off. Steve Nicol was bought in '81. He was after my shirt. They brought Souness in, the team got better. Lawrenson came in, you're getting better. He used to bring in good people. They were not fly-by-knights which was an expression Bob used to use. They'll be focused."

You know the history: the boot room, the European nights, the thirty-year wait finally ended. What is worth dwelling on is something quieter running underneath all of it. In a game that has sold off almost everything, Liverpool has held on to its name, its ground and its shirt. That refusal is as much a part of the club as anything in the trophy cabinet, and it did not happen by accident. It is a choice made quietly and repeatedly, at moments when the easy thing would have been to cash in.
Victor Munoz begins his first Liverpool season with speed, direct running and a clear chance to change the left side of the attack. He joined from Osasuna on a long-term deal and became the first new signing of the Andoni Iraola era.
Anfield has really witnessed countless unforgettable moments, but few are as tense as a penalty taken in front of the Kop. From the calm authority of the 1980s to the pressure-filled moments of the modern game, a select group of players have embraced that responsibility and built lasting reputations from the penalty spot.
