More quotes by Bill Shankly
If you get to the edge of the penalty area with the ball and don't know what to do next, just stick the ball in the net for now. We can evaluate the other options later.
Bill Shankly
We absolutely annihilated England. It was a massacre. We beat them 5-4.
Bill Shankly
I have not been short of invitations to other clubs and have been received more warmly by Everton than I have by Liverpool.
Bill Shankly
A football team is like a piano. You need eight men to carry it and three who can play the damn thing.
Bill Shankly
First is first,Second is nothing
Bill Shankly
With him in defense, we could play Arthur Askey in goal. (after signing Ron Yeats)
Bill Shankly
It's a 90 minute game for sure. In fact I used to train for a 190 minute game so that when the whistle blew at the end of the match I could have played another 90 minutes.
Bill Shankly
The difference between Everton and the Queen Mary is that Everton carry more passengers!
Bill Shankly
Fire in your belly comes from pride and passion in wearing the red shirt. We don't need to motivate players because each of them is responsible for the performance of the team as a whole. The status of Liverpool's players keeps them motivated.
Bill Shankly
Above all, I would like to be remembered as a man who was selfless, who strove and worried so that others could share the glory, and who built up a family of people who could hold their heads up high and say 'We're Liverpool'.
Bill Shankly
Train the right way. Help each other. It's a form of socialism without the politics.
Bill Shankly
The socialism I believe in is everybody working for the same goal and everybody having a share in the rewards. That’s how I see football, that’s how I see life.
Bill Shankly
Just go out and drop a few hand grenades all over the place, son. (to Kevin Keegan)
Bill Shankly
The very word 'Anfield' means more to me than I can describe.
Bill Shankly
I have been received more warmly by Everton than I have by Liverpool. It is scandalous that I should have to write these things about the club that I helped build into what it is today.
Bill Shankly
The problem with you, son, is that all your brains are in your head. (to a Liverpool trainee)
Bill Shankly
I want to build a team that's invincible, so that they have to send a team from bloody Mars to beat us.
Bill Shankly
I'm a people's man - only the people matter.
Bill Shankly
At a football club, there's a holy trinity - the players, the manager and the supporters. Directors don't come into it. They are only there to sign the checks.
Bill Shankly
Don't worry, Alan. At least you'll be able to play close to a great team. (to Alan Ball, who'd just signed for Everton)
