2011–12 Liverpool F.C. season

Common card · No. 215366

The 2011–12 season was the 120th season in Liverpool Football Club's existence, and their 50th consecutive year in the top flight of English football, but they were not participating in any UEFA competition for the first time since the 1999–2000 season. Liverpool had mixed fortunes during the season; they enjoyed success in the domestic cups, winning the League Cup for a record eighth time—also their first trophy since 2006—and reached the FA Cup Final, where they lost to Chelsea. By virtue of winning the League Cup, Liverpool qualified for the 2012–13 UEFA Europa League. The club's league form, however, was indifferent and they finished eighth, their joint-lowest Premier League finish since finishing eighth in 1994, resulting in Kenny Dalglish being relieved of his duties on 16 May 2012.
