The Legacy

Kenny Dalglish became player-manager for Liverpool in 1985-1986 following the departure of Joe Fagan. This change coincided with a high-stakes campaign where the club secured both the First Division title and the FA Cup. Adidas manufactured the kits throughout this period with Crown Paints as the front sponsor. Ian Rush remained central to the attacking output, supported by the defensive stability of Mark Lawrenson and Bruce Grobbelaar. Success was immediate under the new management structure, as the team maintained a high standard of performance across all competitions to finish the season with a domestic double.

Key Moment

The 1986 FA Cup Final at Wembley, where Liverpool defeated Everton 3-1 to complete the historic League and Cup Double.
