Liverpool In Europe
European football demanded new tactics. The old hit-and-run, tackle hard, style of the English game was hardly appropriate to European matches, and the opposition were often an unknown force. As Emlyn Hughes pointed out: 'European teams always threw up a new trick, a new move, a new free kick, a new corner or something. And you had to be ready for it. In the first division you knew everything about everybody, But in Europe it was very different. Liverpool usually send spies out, but they do not always get much more than one look at the opposition. If it is an Eastern European team, or one in the midst of their winter break, the Reds's scouts would not even get that. Bill Shankly used to stress the importance of patience. He told Liverpool never to get frustrated by the opposition. Shanks warned his players that it was all too easy in a second leg, particularly at home, when time was ticking by and they were striving for a goal, to throw caution to the wind. That way, he said, played into the hands of Continental teams, who are quick on the counterattack.
