Throughout LFC's 125th anniversary year, Liverpoolfc.com will retrace the club's history through the striking images that plot a fascinating journey. Third in the series is a photograph of five of the original members of Anfield's fabled Boot Room.
Taken after Bill Shankly's appointment in December 1959, this iconic shot shows Liverpool's new boss alongside his trusted lieutenants - a group who would oversee the club's transformation from Second Division mediocrity to global footballing powerhouse.
Bob Paisley, Ronnie Moran, Joe Fagan, Reuben Bennett and Tom Saunders (not pictured) were the men Shankly selected to help him, in his own words, 'build Liverpool into a bastion of invincibility' following his arrival from Huddersfield Town.
