Arsene Wenger, Jose Mourinho, Pep Guardiola. The list of opposition managers that have suffered and lauded the transformative effects of the Anfield crowd is lengthy and star-studded.
Johan Cruyff revealed that he got goosebumps just standing on the famous turf as an Ajax player in the 1960s. Even Sir Alex Ferguson begrudgingly conceded that the atmosphere at the home of Manchester United’s great rivals was “marvellous”.
Here is a rundown of some of the songs belted out by Liverpool‘s fans which morph Anfield into a cauldron.
When you walk through a storm,
Hold your head up high,
And don’t be afraid of the dark,
At the end of a storm, there’s a golden sky,
And the sweet silver song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you’ll never walk alone,
You’ll never walk alone
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you’ll never walk alone,
You’ll never walk alone…

We had dreams and songs to sing
Of the glory round the Fields of Anfield Road
Beside the Hillsborough Flame
I heard a Kopite mourning:
Why so many taken on that day?
Justice has never been done
But their memory will carry on
There’ll be glory around the Fields of Anfield Road
All round the Fields of Anfield Road
Where once we watched the King Kenny play (and could he play)
Stevie Heighway on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
Of the glory round the Fields of Anfield Road
All round the Fields of Anfield Road
Where once we watched the King Kenny play (and could he play)
Stevie Heighway on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
Of the glory round the Fields of Anfield Road
Of the glory round the Fields of Anfield Road
There’s something that the kop wants you to know
