The 2014–15 season was Liverpool Football Club's 123rd season in existence and their 53rd consecutive season in the top flight of English football. It was also the club's 23rd consecutive season in the Premier League. Along with the Premier League, Liverpool also competed in the FA Cup, Football League Cup and UEFA Champions League (which they entered for the first time since 2009–10). Having finished third in their group, Liverpool subsequently dropped down to the UEFA Europa League.

Season review

Hopes were high at Liverpool, after a title run the previous season had seen them finish runners-up to eventual champions Manchester City. Following the sale of star striker Luis Suárez in the summer, the club spent £117 million on 10 new arrivals to Anfield. Expectations were high as the new season started.

However, it did not take long for things to slowly unravel. Without Suarez, Liverpool only accumulated 28 points from a possible 57, equalling their worst league start for 50 years - ending the calendar year in 8th position. They also bowed out of the Champions League at the first hurdle, finishing 3rd in their group.

Despite this awful spell, the Reds eventually recovered after the New Year, and embarked on a 12-match unbeaten run, lifting hopes of Champions League qualification. However, after losing to Manchester United, Liverpool then suffered another poor run, which saw them win just twice in their last eight games. This killed off their hopes of Champions League qualification for the following season, although they did seal Europa League qualification for 2015–16 courtesy of Arsenal's 4–0 win over Aston Villa in the FA Cup Final.

The Reds reached both the FA Cup and Capital One Cup semi-finals, where they lost to Aston Villa and Chelsea, respectively.

This was also captain Steven Gerrard's final season at the club due to the expiration of his contract, ending his 17-year spell at Liverpool.[1] Raheem Sterling was sold to Manchester City for £50m in May.
