Dalglish rightly remains the only name on Red lips

IT would appear that, for once, Liverpool fans are not going to do as Kenny Dalglish has asked.

Dalglish is the number one icon in the history of the club. Bill Shankly runs him close for that accolade, as does Bob Paisley, but nobody is loved more than the Scotsman, who continues to revolutionise Liverpool’s season.

Their comfortable rout of Birmingham City on Saturday, led brilliantly by a Maxi Rodriguez hat-trick and supplemented with another goal from Dirk Kuyt and a morale boosting finish for Joe Cole, offered further proof that Dalglish has brought the midas touch back to Anfield with him after replacing Roy Hodgson in January.
