Not just Liverpool Managers,all of football!..I'm a Spurs fan and when he spoke u listened! A truly one off,unique, inspiring character, man of the people&fans! He understood the game& that most relevant and Important connection between the fans( which means the community) and the Team. And I think every new footballer,Manager and employee,should be shown the video about him& the Clubs origins! Man Utd had the great Matt Busby& the 'Busby Babes& the Munich Air disaster& the rebuild! ( yrs later SAF+£££ ), Celtic had the great Jock Stein and Spurs were fortunate to have Bill Nicholson! But Bill Shankly wasn't just the Liverpool Manager,he represented the community& City,because he really cared about the fans!
I'm here after Liverpool have won number 19. I'd just like to say thank you boss. Liverpool would not be what it is today without this man. If he never took over in 59, Liverpool would not have been a global empire, my father would have never supported them and I'd never have got to experience what it's like to follow this gigantic club. Every trophy the club has won since 59 is all down to you. R.I.P
To this day..nobody knows why shanks walked away, and he admitted that he had made a mistake retiring early...But no matter what some people of football make of shankly... Like matt busby at Manchester United... Bill Shankly made Liverpool to what we are today
Shankly, Busby, Paisley class acts and gents. No trash talk or running each other down like in todays game. I wonder what Shanks would make of todays players wearing pink boots, £500 hairdos and cars worth £150,000 in the car park?.
@@ancietman He would be disappointed and disgusted as a high percentage of to days players come from a working class background. Shankly was a working class man through and through.
His ashes were buried on the Liverpool grounds. So technically he's still there. Klopp was the modern day Shankly. It will be difficult to replace Klopp, I have him just behind Pep as the best in the world.
Bill Shankly took over Liverpool F.C. in 1959, they were a no mark-also ran Second Division football club. He turned Liverpool into Football League Champions F.A. Cup winners, European Cup semi-finalists, European Cup Winners Cup finalists and U.E.F.A. Cup Winners. He left Liverpool as an established - renowned Top Flight Football Club, well known across Europe and beyond.
Jurgen's had a jaw dropping moment in a press conf that is nvr really talked about even today. 'It's just as important how the club is when you leave,as what you achieved whie you were running it' I always took that as Bill Shankly vs Al Fergie YNWA
@@jasmineblack9778 🤣Your time will come . It's inevitable. Hopefully you can go deep In the champions league . You can beat anybody on your day at home . In the league. Up if you can navigate Man Utd it will be a toss up for who wins it .
Shanks was truly a "one off " Wonderful human being, and the Ultimate man manager made all his players better. Jurgen Klopp has very similar traits, although Shanks is irreplaceable.
As man utd fan a rivalry I could listen to bill shankly all day long no disrespect to you Raymond yes he was a wonderful human being of a man that wonderful voice sends me in shivers mate yes I respect you and the rest of liverpool fans that from me a man utd fan. I was watching an old documentary about him a few months ago and looking back real football fans like us enjoy proper football like we did new generation of fans and footballer should learn and listen what he talking coming from man utd fan. I do respect Liverpool people a lot.
I was getting dressed for school on that fateful September morning and I had the old radio gram on in the background. As I struggled with my tie, I heard Phil Easton say those words, "That was Alvin Stardust singing Let's Pretend, on the day that Bill Shankly died".
This is y I’m so proud and honoured to be a big fan of this LFC club and glad to be a part of this family yes yes YNWA 1892 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗😃😃😃😃😄😄😄😄💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯❤️I’ll always be a fan of this club Liverpool is the best there is ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The difficult thing for top managers like shankly is when you walk away that has to be it. It can only be heartbreaking for major managers when thier career finishes.
Four genuine masters 4 Sirs of Football Busby ,Shankly,Stein,Clough 4 men who entertained put fans before chairmen & directors Men who suffered no fools no egos .Knighted by football fans would mean more to 4 characters than anything Queen could bestow on them .Shanks only manager I ever heard Brian Clough say he 100% respected ,loved Shanks like a father Could see in Cloughies eyes exactly how much worshipped Shanks. Sad thing is England now look to Europe ,pay huge salaries Inc compensation packages when sack foreign managers.Scotland still has top managers just not getting opportunity ,working on almost no budget yet expected to still please fans eyes ,have game plans play to entertain .St Johnstone win cup double ousted Old Firm dominance Livi are well organised Shanks would be pushing for fellow countrymen to be given chance Managers like himself hard ,honest total football men that had genuine bond with fans you cannot BS that with fans.Pity never had Shankly take Scotland job Imagine him with Souness,Dalglish,Hansen ,Cooper,mcLeish,Miller,Strachan,Gough to name a few Shankly with Stein as double act Were solid friends & most of all geniuses man management ,tactician masters players idolized had a respect long gone from game Shanks is our Clough the best international managers we both never had .Still today famous This is Anfield players see & touch enroute to pitch Every game flags with Shankly image scouse fans fly high & proud still hear Anfield chant Shankly.Famous Shankly Gates stand solid & straight ,have an aura exactly like Liverpool Legend Mr Bill Shankly Gates are better than any statue At Ibrox we have famous Gates EVERY young & old Inc away visiting fans ,tourists are drawn to stand & have photo taking I imagine it's exact same at Anfield Entrance to very special,historical place The Four Masters The Terrace Legends RIP.
I feel that many young Liverpool fans forgot that Bill Shankly or may not know that he started the domination by taking them out of the old second division and just growing a team respected the world over.
That red shirt of Shankly's....socialist and Liverpool! Love it. One of the greatest characters in football history who was adored by players and fans alike. Walk on!
Legendary Manager with such a unique character. Exceptional man management skills, great tactician and unique visionary. I think there is a quality about him that I don't think its mentioned enough; The use of Psychology in football, on and off the pitch. He was a Grandmaster of the mental side of the game. Way ahead of his time in this regard.
What a great man Middlesbrough turned him down after he applied for the job with his mate Andy Beatrice at Huddersfield god almighty what were the Boro thinking of Boros loss Liverpool's gain RIP Shanks the greatest manager who ever lived
Him and Paisley , thank god they belong to Liverpool, they gave us memories to last a lifetime l simply say THANK YOU RIP 🙏 🕊 BUT PLEASE REMAIN CLOSE TO ANFIELD IN SPIRIT
A Story you may Not know about Bill....When he Bought Ron Yates from Dundee, He met him at the station with the press.. Bill Said " Come Lads take a Walk round my new center half" Emphasizing his size....a wee bit of Psychology right there as he new it would be well reported.......As a Scot Im Chuffed he went to such a Great club....Of the people.
He died of a heart attack probably because of keep thinking of the decision to step down watching liverpool winning everything and regretting retiring.
Who knows why on earth he made this decision . He left a championship side and more importantly a European dynasty that no other manager in Europe since as emulated ..Maybe with the exception of Cryuff ..Barcelona .. .Anyway its a good debate .. Liverpool are now ."Kings of the world" .once again .Probably with the greatest Liverpool side that there as ever been ..I hope Kloppe will leave and plan a good exit .......Eventually. ...When he does go .
I don't mean that! I'm talking about the way Shankly was treated after he left he wasn't allowed to go near the training ground so he decided to watch Everton instead there were other things too
The trouble was he was still going to the training ground on almost a daily basis after he retired. In the end it became too much of an intrusion and a distraction for Paisley who was trying to move the club forward.
