Liverpool F.C. Crest
Liverpool continues its long rivalry with Everton today. Both clubs participate in the historic Merseyside Derby, a heated event that consists of more red cards than other fixture in Premiership history. Some say the rivalry stemmed from religious differences, others say because of long standing dispute over Anfield. Liverpool also shares a rivalry with its north-west neighbors, the legendary Manchester United. Many have deemed Manchester United, the Liverpool of the ’90′s and the millennium. Liverpool dominated the scene in the ’70′s and ’80′s, and are still considered a veteran powerhouse today.
Liverpool FC Manager

Liverpool has produced some iconic players in their rich and fruitful history. Ephraim Longworth, was a solid player who served as the First Captain for the National team in 1921. Elisha Scott, the longest serving player for Liverpool, was a dominant and elusive goal keeper. Scott was complimented by Gordon Hodgson, who scored a record 17 hat tricks for the club, back in the ’20′s and ’30′s. The 1960′s would see the additions of Ron “Colossus” Yeats and Roger Hunt. Both of these players were instrumental in leading Liverpool to several noteworthy victories. Hunt was part of England’s World Cup winning team in ’66, and still holds a club record of 245 goals scored in league play. The ’70′s would see Liverpool continue their winning ways and high profile recruitment. Alan Hansen, Kenny Dalglish, and Ian Rush would add to the legacy that is Liverpool.
Not much can be said about ‘The Reds’ that has not been said already. The current unit consists of veteran and young stars alike, and they continue to carry the banner of Liverpool, proud and mighty. The current squad has players from Israel, Brazil, Italy, North Africa, and other well known cities and regions.
