Liverpool FC: The 30-Year Wait
Jason Isaacs narrates the story of Liverpool’s quest to return to the top of English football by winning the Premier League, with contributions from Jurgen Klopp, Michael Owen, John Henry and more.
Documentary examining the story of Liverpool’s quest to return to the top of English football by winning the Premier League. It is a revealing insight into why the club fell away after their domination of football in the 80s - how the club’s identity was shaped by both the tragedies of Heysel and Hillsborough, the struggle to keep up with the rapidly changing world of football, and the Jurgen Klopp revolution that has returned them back to the summit of the game.
Narrated by Liverpool fan Jason Isaacs, this is a story told by the people who shaped the club we see today, including contributions from managers Jurgen Klopp, Rafa Benitez, Roy Evans, Gerard Houllier and Brendan Rodgers, chief executives Rick Parry and Ian Ayre, key players in Liverpool’s history, including Mohamed Salah, Jordan Henderson, Virgil Van Dijk, Robbie Fowler, John Barnes and Michael Owen, and the man who revolutionised the club, owner John Henry.
