Liverpool is entrusted to King Kenny

When times are tough always remember the heroes of the past is inevitable, inherent in human beings. No wonder then that Liverpool FC has been entrusted to Kenny Dalglish, a living legend of the institution of the River Mersey. Kenny King with the Reds won three European Cups (player) and seven English league (as a player and coach) and just went with him with whom raised their last league in 1990.

So far the Scot served as ambassador and adviser of the club and summer, when asked his opinion of directors to elect a replacement for Rafa Benitez, Dalglish ran himself as the best option. Ignored him and chose Roy Hodgson, a coach who had been with Fulham in the final of the Europa League. But Hodgson led the Reds to sign their worst league start since 1954: 25 points in 20 days, 19 of the leader and 4 of decline, with nine losses, including three in the last four games.

Liverpool has been in crisis for years and only lived for a period of happiness with the Champions League won in 2004 with that epic comeback at Milan. Twenty years without winning the league are too many for the biggest club in England has been stalled in the eighteen gimped and Manchester United has already tied and contested to overcome it. The draft was buttoned Benitez when he decided to dispense with Xabi Alonso and finally left the club to employ a very undervalued although it had invested a whopping 395 million euros during their stay on the bench.

Dalglish left Anfield in 1991, tired of the pressure and depressed and distressed by the tragedy of Hillsborough still fresh. He soon repented, but Liverpool had already hired his replacement, as King Kenny went to Blackburn Rovers, with whom he won the Premiership in 1995, only team to break the triumvirate of United, Chelsea and Arsenal. Some doubt that the 59 years after being removed from the bench during the last decade, but Dalglish has two important guarantees: one is that the fans love him, is a myth to them and will have full support, the another is that he knows the club as anyone and is a great believer in the quarry, which highly values the social mass, which takes Carraguer Gerrard and the only representatives of a stock they expect to recover.

But Dalglish is not alone. Beside it lay, as assistant coach, nothing more and nothing less than Ian Rush, top scorer in Liverpool's history (346 goals, 229 in league). Together they try to form a tandem-style Clough & Taylor to return to Liverpool to the place that history and the fans deserve.
