There's not one club in Europe with an anthem like You'll Never Walk Alone. There's not one club in the world so united with the fans.

For that I admire Liverpool more than anything." Dutch legend Johan Cruyff after Istanbul.

"The English club proved that miracles really do exist. I've now made Liverpool my English team. They showed that football is the most beautiful sport of all.

They showed their unconditional support at half-time when they were losing 3-0 and still they didn't stop singing." World Cup legend Diego Maradona who was cheering for Liverpool in Istanbul.

"Kasut but yang diberi oleh ayah saya mungkin hanya berharga RM15, tetapi ia amat bermakna dalam kerjaya bola sepak saya." Mokhtar Dahari

"These players want to win games. They want to score all the time. When I see that enthusiasm, camaraderie and team spirit in the dressing room, I can go home to my bed knowing I've got some really honest players."

"Ronaldo made a difference beacuse the focus (from Everton) went on to him and it released Rooney, Giggs and Scholes. They were putting three men around Ronaldo all the time, so he did a great job for us in that way.

Sir Alex Ferguson

as expected, you gonna post this quote. second that.

" By singing "You'll Never Walk Alone", the fans sent a message to eleven shattered men in the dressing-room: the fans will be with you, through the wind and the rain, through times of adversity like this. No matter how much the payers hurt, we'd never walk alone. Our fans were with us. Together. Their message was to play for some respect, play for pride in the shirt. "The fans are with us," I said. "Let's give them something to shout about. They've spent loads of money. They're singing our name and we are getting stuffed 3-0. If we get one, they'll get behind us even more. That will help put another one in for us. Come on, let's f***ing have a go!"
Steven Gerrard.
Champions League Final 2005

"Liverpool are magic, Everton are tragic."

Kevin Keegan

"We were sitting in the dressing room and we could clearly hear thousands of fans singing You'll Never Walk Alone. Can you imagine how that felt? We were 3-0 down in the Champions League final and all we could hear were 45,000 people letting us know they still believed in us. We knew they had endured a long journey and made so many sacrifices to be there. It was at that point we started to believe too."
Luis Garcia on what inspired the amazing comeback in Istanbul.

"Liverpool's fans are just amazing. The best feeling I have at away games is Anfield. It is just incredible. I love it. You get goose bumps when you see their supporters sing You'll Never Walk Alone."
