Kenny Dalglish
King Kenny as he is known to the Kop, enjoyed a long and prolific footballing career that stretched between 1968 and 1990, with his last few years at Liverpool reduced to just a handful of appearances after becoming the player-manager of the club.
Kenny Dalglish started his career with Celtic in 1968 and joined Liverpool in 1977 after winning every domestic trophy on offer in Scotland. Dalglish was signed in order to fill the void left by Kevin Keegan, who at the time earned the tag of being one of Liverpool's greatest ever strikers.
Dalglish quickly became a fan-favourite and helped establish Liverpool's dominance over the league. He helped the Reds win all trophies on offer before being appointed as the player-manager, following the resignation of Joe Fagan in 1985.
King Kenny spent fice seasons as a player-manager with Liverpool, making an odd appearance here and there in the seasons before finally calling it a day in 1990. Dalglish in his short spell helped Liverpool win all major domestic honours and till date remains the last manager to win the English first division/Premier League title with the Reds.
Dalglish then went on to manage Blackburn Rovers and Newcastle United before joining his first club Celtic as the director of football before shortly taking the reigns of the club, following the sacking of John Barnes in 2000. The very short spell with Celtic saw Dalglish winning the Scottish League Cup before being given the sack, following the appointment of Martin O'Neil.
A swansong of sort followed when Kenny Dalglish was approached by Rafael Benitez to take up a role as Liverpool Ambassador before taking up the reigns once again in January of 2011, just 2 years after rejoining the club, following the sacking of the Spaniard and eventually replacing Roy Hodgson in the space of a year. The Scot only lasted a year but helped Liverpool win the 2012 Football League Cup, the Reds' last major trophy.
