The reputation of Liverpool supporters as the team’s ‘twelfth man’ is long established and with good reason.
The vocal and emotional encouragement provided from the terraces and stands is often celebrated as a key factor in helping the Reds overcome seemingly insurmountable barriers both individually and collectively.
Liverpool’s unparalleled history can be seen as one of the club’s biggest blessings but also one of its biggest curses however as the Anfield crowd is one of the most demanding in the game and not normally slow in letting their heroes know if they don’t like what they’re seeing.
