And now there is compelling evidence to suggest the same is now happening, albeit on a lesser scale.
The competitive nature of the modern Premier League - and the vast financial backing of majority state-owned rivals such as Manchester City and Newcastle United, along with multi-billionaire-led Chelsea - makes it unlikely Liverpool will be able to dominate to the extent they did during the 1970s and 1980s.
But the trophies have been racking up during the past six years.

The League Cup final defeat to Newcastle United in March means Liverpool still haven't successfully defended a trophy since a third successive league title in 1984.
It was the fourth time they had achieved such a feat during the 1970s and 1980s
And since the advent of the Premier League, United have defended the championship six times, Manchester City four times and Chelsea once
The only Premier League titles to be won in isolation - meaning the victorious side had not been champions in the five years either beforehand or afterwards - are Blackburn Rovers in 1995 and Leicester City in 2016.
