The Fenway Sports Group purchased Liverpool in October of 2010.

During that time they have guided Liverpool to their first-ever Premier League tittle, a 6th Champions League, one League Cup and one FA Cup.

Now, with FSG looking to sell, 101GreatGoals has taken a look back at every transfer window FSG have overseen, and rated them out of 10.

As there is a lot of windows to get through, summer and winter windows will be included in one section. So the 2011/12 rating will consist of the 2011 summer window and the 2012 winter window, for example.

FSG’s first transfer window in charge of Liverpool came in the middle of the 2010/11 season, so we will first look at the winter window of 2011.
