As late as 1958, Liverpool offered to lend players to United after several of their stars were killed in the Munich aeroplane crash. There hasn't been a transfer between the clubs since Phil Chisnall moved from United to Liverpool in 1964. Not content with hoovering up the domestic prizes, Liverpool reigned supreme abroad, winning the European Cup four times and the UEFA Cup twice.

Liverpool supporters claim they beat Manchester to the craze of dressing in fashionable 'casual' sportswear that swept the terraces in the 1980s.
