Andrew Hannah took the armband in 1892, in the club's first season after the split from Everton. Virgil van Dijk holds it today.

In August 2025, Liverpool were around 2/1 to retain the Premier League, the clear favourites with every major firm. By the middle of February they were 150/1, an implied probability of roughly one per cent.

The passion for football doesn’t die when the final whistle blows. The excitement continues for millions of players on a console or PC.

Anfield has produced enough 89th-minute swings that longtime supporters treat a 1-0 scoreline after 85 minutes as unfinished business rather than a result. Steven Gerrard's heroics against Olympiacos in 2004, the three goals inside six second-half minutes against Milan in Istanbul – these are not freak outliers to anyone who has watched Liverpool for a decade. Yet odds compilers keep pricing a goal after the 85th minute as though it belongs in the same bracket as a red card inside the first ninety seconds.

Liverpool have played 6,082 competitive matches and scored 10,690 goals. Somebody wrote all of that down. The job passed from printers to clerks to camera rigs, and every handover changed what a Liverpool match actually leaves behind once the final whistle goes.

Liverpool FC are going through significant changes right now. With Andoni Iraola confirmed as the newly appointed manager, the club will look and feel very different from the side Arne Slot built.

The change has come quickly for Liverpool. In April 2025, Arne Slot's men defeated Tottenham 5-1 at Anfield to claim the 20th league title in England with four games to spare. Just 13 months later, Slot had been sacked, Liverpool finished in fifth place and the champions were in for another big shake-up.

Liverpool's approach to signing players has shifted more times than most clubs care to admit. From the shrewd domestic raids of the Shankly era to the global scouting networks of today, each decade has brought its own philosophy, its own risks, and its own triumphs. The club that once built dynasties from British talent now scours South America and Eastern Europe for bargains that fit a specific tactical blueprint.

Cody Gakpo's situation at Liverpool has turned into one of those debates where the numbers and the mood in the stands seem to belong to two different players. Seven league goals last season, which marks his worst return since arriving from PSV, and yet Tottenham are apparently circling, with Roberto de Zerbi reportedly viewing him as exactly the kind of forward who could unlock his front line. So which version of Gakpo is the real one?

Liverpool's 2026 pre-season has taken the club coast to coast across the United States, with fixtures against Sunderland in Nashville, Wrexham at Yankee Stadium in New York, and Leeds United at Soldier Field in Chicago. It is the club's second US tour in three pre-seasons, and it comes at a moment when Liverpool's commercial presence in America has never been bigger.

Liverpool begin the new season from a different position than a year ago. The squad has changed, Andoni Iraola is preparing for his first Premier League campaign with the club, and several players returned late after the World Cup.

With the 2025-26 season wrapped up, Arne Slot’s 2024-25 masterpiece remains Liverpool’s most recent league crown and the club's 20th. But talking about "dominance" at Anfield is tricky because it’s never looked the same way twice. It changes with the era.

Not many of Liverpool's forwards have looked or made as big an impression as Djibril Cissé. The Frenchman was known for his explosive speed, finishing, vivid hairstyles and fashion, and brought theatre with him wherever he went.

Liverpool FC and Merseyside Police have expanded efforts to tackle ticket touting after seizing more than £1.2 million in criminal assets linked to organised resale activity. According to Liverpool FC, the investigation also led to 432 lifetime bans and the blocking or cancellation of 67,663 suspected fake accounts during the 2025 and 2026 season.

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.

Every summer the Premier League relights the argument. New players are brought on and managers announce tweaks, the preseason scores give broad conclusions, and fans start speculating who will win the trophy in May. The biggest July story very rarely lasts the length of a 38-game season.

Liverpool have a strong connection to Spain and added another Spaniard to the ranks this summer with the appointment of Andoni Iraola. Following the dismissal of Arne Slot, the Reds moved quick to land the former Bournemouth boss. After an impressive playing career, Iraola has built a strong reputation as a coach and Liverpool will hope the 44-year-old can push the team on again.

The 2026 World Cup is well under way across North America, and Liverpool have a strong contingent representing their nations.

Welcome to Anfield, a historic district in the northwest of England, located in Merseyside, Liverpool.

If you've ever stood on the corner of Walton Breck Road as the team bus pulls in, you'll know that there’s something about Anfield that defies simple logic. People talk about the "aura" or the "12th man" as if it’s some mystical force field that physically pushes the ball into the net at the Kop end. For years, rival fans laughed it off as mere sentimentality, but if you look at the cold, hard numbers, there is a very real statistical anomaly at play.

Liverpool's summer schedule for 2026/27 is taking shape, and it carries the kind of fixtures that quicken the pulse of any supporter who pores over the club's results and history. Four pre-season friendlies are now lined up between 25 July and 9 August — Sunderland, Wrexham, a meeting with Leeds United at Soldier Field in Chicago, and a closing night against AS Monaco at Anfield. For a fanbase that knows its FA Cup nights, its European epics and its roll-call of captains and managers by heart, the off-season quiet is lifting, and the anticipation that has defined so many Anfield summers is stirring once more.

The Liverpool team will be well represented at the 2026 World Cup, with many players traveling across North America. The competition starts on June 11 and runs until July 19, making it the perfect opportunity for fans to see familiar Anfield names on the biggest international stage.

The departure of Liverpool gaffer Arne Slot at the end of the 2025/26 Premier League season was not a great surprise, as our top flight title defence campaign went horrifically wrong - and was in no way helped by the massive overspend in the summer transfer market as the players just did not gel well enough for way too long.

The World Cup is here. Taking place across North America and with an expanded number of teams, Liverpool players will be pivotal in their national team's successes.

Known for his large-scale public artworks, Culshaw has created many of the football murals that have become landmarks around Anfield and across Liverpool.

Ownership changes in football can have immediate effects on a club’s culture and also its future success. Liverpool has had its fair share of dominating eras under varying owners. One of the most influential ownership changes came with Fenway Sports Group (FSG), but when did the group buy Liverpool?

It's not exactly a mutiny in the old-school sense, but there's definitely something happening behind closed doors inside the Anfield dressing room, with many starting to question whether Arnie Slot is dealing with a dressing room revolt.

Twelve months ago Liverpool were champions of England. They finished the 2025/26 season fifth, 25 points behind Arsenal, and out of all three cups before the last four. Arne Slot keeps his job. The squad he assembled last summer needs surgery, and the transfer window is where he has to perform it.

The facts show that modern football is not just about the scoreboard, tactics, and the lineup, but also about the team's mentality. “Mentality Monsters” — that's what Liverpool players are called in the football world, and for good reason.

The 2025/26 domestic Premier League campaign has not gone to plan for Liverpool manager Arne Slot or the Anfield faithful themselves, as our title defence campaign following 2024/25's success quickly turned into a damp squib and our huge spending during the summer transfer window has largely caused more problems than were desired.

There’s a reason people keep circling back to Liverpool matches when they talk about football predictions. Even after all these years. Even after chaotic title races, managerial changes, injuries, VAR arguments, and entire seasons that looked cursed from October onward. Some clubs attract viewers. Liverpool attracts obsession. I’ve worked around sports media and digital content for close to eight years now, and honestly, I’m tired of people pretending football audiences only care about trophies. They don’t. They care about unpredictability, emotional swings, narrative pressure, and the strange confidence that somehow returns every Friday night before kickoff. Liverpool gives people all of that. Every week.

The shadow cast by a predecessor can often be the most difficult obstacle for a new manager to overcome, especially when that predecessor happens to be the person who rebuilt the club’s modern identity. For Slot, the first year at Anfield was always going to be a case of balancing the existing tactical DNA with his own more measured, possession-heavy philosophy. 

From Owen to Salah, Liverpool's contributions to the World Cup have been as dramatic as the club's own storied history, and the 2026 tournament promises more of the same.

Liverpool’s current Premier League campaign has been one of contrast, strong attacking output on one hand, and periods of inconsistency on the other. A statistical breakdown of their season reveals a team still competing at a high level, but one that has not fully matched the dominance of their strongest recent campaigns.

There's a reason Liverpool supporters have developed a habit of holding their breath when big news breaks. The club operates at extremes. Decisions that look questionable on announcement day end up defining trophy-winning eras, while others that seemed perfectly sensible at the time dragged the club backwards for the better part of three or four years.
