50 Men Who Made LFC: Bob Paisley

The most successful English football manager of all-time and one of just two men to claim a trio of European Cups as a boss, Bob Paisley’s glory-laden nine-year stint in the Anfield hot-seat is unlikely to ever be surpassed.

Between reluctantly stepping into the huge void left by Bill Shankly in 1974, to his final farewell in 1983, Paisley led Liverpool to a staggering 19 major trophies.

A First Division title-winner with the Reds as a player, the former half-back joined the backroom staff upon hanging up his boots and led the club to its first Central League title just two years later.
