So, I decided to dig into the history of Liverpool FC managers. It’s something I’ve always been curious about, you know, who were the big names, the guys who shaped the club.

Getting Started
First, I started by just hitting up the usual spots online. I wanted a basic list, something to give me an overview of all the managers, from the very beginning to the current boss, Jürgen Klopp.
Compiling the List
It took some doing, I won’t lie. I bounced between a few different websites, cross-referencing names and dates. It was like putting together a jigsaw puzzle, slowly piecing together the full timeline.
- I made a simple list at first, just names and the years they were in charge.
- Then, I went back and added in little notes about each one, their major achievements, or any particular drama during their time.
Digging Deeper
Once I had the basic list, I got a bit more serious. I wanted to know more than just the headlines. I wanted context. So I started digging into some of the more famous managers.
I spent a good chunk of time reading up on Bill Shankly and Bob Paisley, obviously. Absolute legends. What they accomplished is just mind-blowing.
It was all pretty fascinating, seeing how different managers approached the job, the different styles they brought, and how the club evolved over the years. The whole thing really gave me a new appreciation for the history of Liverpool.
