Honours

For more details on this topic, see Liverpool F.C. seasons. Liverpool's first trophy was the Lancashire League which the club won in its first season. In 1901, the club won its first league title, while the first success in the FA Cup was in 1965. In terms of the number of trophies won, Liverpool's most successful decade was the 1980s; the club won six league titles, two FA Cups, four League Cups, five Charity Shields (one shared) and two European Cups. Liverpool has won the English League Championship eighteen times (a record the club share with Manchester United), the FA Cup seven times and the League Cup a record seven times. The club achieved a League and FA Cup "Double" in 1986, and has won the League and European Cup double twice, in 1977 and 1984. Liverpool also won the League Cup in 1984 to complete a unique treble, a feat repeated (albeit with different trophies) in 2001 when the club won the FA Cup, League Cup and UEFA Cup.
Liverpool has one of the best top-flight records in history, having finished below fourteenth only 12 times in 95 seasons. The club has accumulated more top-flight wins than any other English team. Liverpool also has the second highest average league finishing position for the period 1900–1999, with an average league placing of 8.7. Liverpool has won the European Cup, Europe's primary club competition, five times, which is an English record. Only Real Madrid and Milan have won the competition on more occasions. Liverpool's fifth triumph meant that the club won the trophy outright and was awarded a multiple-winner badge. Liverpool has won the UEFA Cup, Europe's secondary club competition, three times, a record the club share with Juventus and Internazionale.
