Liverpool Home Shirt 2008/10 with Gerrard 8 printing

The latest Home football shirt for the most successful club in English football history is here. The new adidas Home Shirt for the 2008/10 season will be worn by some of the Premier Leagues greatest stars like Torres, Gerrard & Carragher.

The world famous red home shirt was the brain child of former manager Bill Shankly who decided to send the team out in all red for the first time in 1964. He thought the colour scheme would carry psychological impactred for danger, red for power. From that point on an iconic kit was born.

The current Liverpool badge is based around the traditional liver bird, which is placed inside a shield. Above the shield is a representation of the Shankly Gates bearing the title of the clubs famous anthem, "Youll Never Walk Alone". The twin flames at either side are symbolic of the Hillsborough memorial, where an eternal flame burns outside Anfield, in memory of those who died in the disaster.

As Liverpool captain, Steven Gerrard has been called an influential and versatile midfielder and is known for his long-range shots and defence-splitting passes. During his career he has won the PFA Young Player of the Year, PFA Player of the Year, European Midfielder of the year, Premier League Most Valuable Player (twice), and UEFA Most Valuable Player.
