It’s 10 years since Liverpool won their first trophy under FSG’s watch, beating Cardiff City on penalties in the League Cup final back in 2012. By defeating Man City in the FA Cup semi-finals on Saturday, the Reds have also reached the final of the tournament for the first time in a decade.
With Jurgen Klopp at the helm, Liverpool ’s American owners have seen the club crowned champions of England, Europe and the world, while also lifting both the League Cup and European Super Cup. Chasing an unprecedented quadruple this year, John Henry and co. will be confident further silverware is to follow with the German in charge.
Yet such success is in stark contrast to their early years at Anfield despite winning that maiden trophy 10 years ago, little over a year after buying the club in the first place. Now one of the best sides in the world, that was clearly not the case during the first half of their Reds reign.
