The 2011-12 campaign delivered a glorious, drought-ending return to silverware for Liverpool as The Reds, led by talismanic captain Steven Gerrard, clinched the League Cup. The season’s hero was Luis Suárez, whose 11 Premier League goals powered the attack despite the club’s indifferent league form which resulted in an 8th-place finish. The dramatic final saw The Reds triumph over Cardiff City on penalties at Wembley, securing the club's first trophy in six years and a vital piece of silverware that remains a defining chapter of that tumultuous era.
