Kenny Dalglish names one person Liverpool fans still have to thank

Kenny Dalglish Liverpool Shanks Bill Shankly Joe Fagan Ronnie Moran Anfield Celtic

Sir Kenny Dalglish has spoken fondly about his move to Liverpool and how one man in particular should be thanked for the decades off success the Anfield club has enjoyed for generations.

The legendary Scottish striker left Celtic for Merseyside in the summer of 1977 and never looked back, winning six league titles and three European Cups before going on to manage the club to a league and cup double in 1986 before winning further league titles in 1988 and 1990 as well as the FA Cup in 1989.

And in an interview with Peter Hooton for BT Sport, Dalglish recalled how he first came to Liverpool as a 15-year-old but but not actually sign for the club until 11 years later.
