The 1966–67 season was '''Liverpool Football Club''''s 75th season in existence and their fifth consecutive season in the First Division. Their win against Everton at Goodison Park at least gave Liverpool the Charity Shield, but they were humbled by Ajax, led by a young Johan Cruyff, in the European Cup. Liverpool finished fifth in the table, with arch rivals Manchester United winning the championship instead.
