Liverpool’s first campaign of the newly formed Premier League was a transitional one under Graeme Souness. The club, once dominant in the 1970s and 80s, struggled to adapt, finishing a disappointing 6th. Injuries, inconsistent form, and dressing-room unrest hampered progress. However, the season marked the emergence of young talent: Robbie Fowler was breaking through, while Steve McManaman became a regular, showcasing his flair on the wing. Established figures like Ian Rush and John Barnes provided experience but couldn’t fully carry the side. With early domestic cup exits and no silverware, it was a season of rebuilding and transition.
