Kenny Dalglish - Liverpool Football Club 1977 - 1990

Kopites say no-one is bigger than the club, but the man they call King Kenny is almost an exception. Kenny Dalglish is a Liverpool FC legend for his heroics on the pitch and directions from the dugout. He made 501 appearances for the Reds and scored 169 goals, with playing honours including six leagues and three European cups.

My favorite football player , grew up in Manchester as young boy kicking the football against the wall pretending to be dalglish, never could afford to go watch a game because my mum and dad were poor but I used to listen to liverpool on the wireless radio with my dad and we would buy the pink paper to get the football results , miss my childhood wonderful memories I will always cherish miss you mum and dad always your son Lee 🙏❤

[@Paulco67]

You may have been materialistically poor but your childhood sounds rich in a very special way. King Kenny was my favorite player of all time too. What a man!

[@beesmonk]

my mams and nana's garden hedges were smashed in by a little king kenny(me) and his mates, every sat I 'd run to the papershop waiting for the pink to arrive, great times tbh, same ere to in manchester

[@iainclark5964]

In the Black Country our local paper, the Express and Star, also had a pink section for the footie results. Even more looked forward to then as many of the Midlands clubs were doing well and winning trophies!

[@andrewwatkins5279]

Been a True RED since i was a kid, first game at Anfield 1967 Anfield v Spurs 1-1 greaves for them 2 mins!!!! Sir Roger for us. Seen em All down the years all through the Shankly, Paisley to Klopp era's. The Triumphs The Disasters. One Star Shines through it all - KENNY!! KING KENNY! SIR KENNY! THE PAISLEY MASTERSTROKE After the grief of losing Keegan. Stevie G could play. But if you could take the "slyness" out of Suarez - for me he was the Closest to Kenny for World Class Ability. Crazy Good Player, but weak minded at his worse. KING KENNY WILL ALWAYS BE THE KING OF THE KOP! SIR KENNY THE PRIDE OF MERSEYSIDE AND THAT IS NOT JUST THE MAGIC FEET AND THE COMPUTER BRAIN!!! on a football field. Done so much for the City and Families that he now Loves as his home. What would Dalglish and Rush be worth today?? Thank you Kenny for all those incredible memories. The most dangerous player i ever saw with his back to goal, amazing thinking power! The use of his body, the whole package. Lack of pace? your having a laugh! They were always trying to catch up to the King he was always five yards ahead in thinking! "Depends on your point of view!" as the Maestro said in his Glasgow Brogue...What a Player! What a Manager! What a Man!

[@SR-xk8cd]

Even as an Arsenal fan, I have nothing but admiration and respect for that magnificent Liverpool team, that ruled English and European football for almost twenty years. And Kenny Dalglish played a huge part in Liverpool’s success.

[@hughwhite7055]

Liam Brady the Arsenal legend said "Liverpool ruled England and Europe at same time. Ferguson never did that". Respect that generation of Paisley etc

[@andrewwatkins5279]

Total Credit! and the Gooners haven't been half bad either. The dreaded night at Anfield, we were dead...the memory Sticks!! The year of Hillsborough three games played an that week! FA??? well, they have the right initials. Good luck to the Gooners this year, Artete has done well but what a wound up guy? hate to see him when he's angry! WAW!!

[@davidcowan4942]

As a young Edinburgh lad born in 72 Kenny was a legend. Watching back these goals thr ball seems to be crossing the line before the keeper has time to react and seems to be by fantastic placement over power every time.

[@ihateyoumother-fucker3204]

My cousin born in 1972 (gone now R.I.P) LOVED Keegan & Dalglish. I was born in 1978, so I was too young to see remember him in hits heyday. The point is, for such a small man, I never realised how strong he was on the ball. No one's knocking him off the ball and he seem tenacious as well. "Thanks" for the upload - AFC fan, but massive respect to LFC due to cousin & Liverpudlians I've meet from over the years.
