Kenny Dalglish, Liverpool’s £440,000 buy from Celtic, last night got the best sort of welcome to Anfieldhe could possibly expect. For it came from Kevin Keegan the £500,000 dynamo he replaces on the eve of another European Cup season.

Keegan, speaking from his home near his new club S.V. Hamburg, said: “Kennymay prove a better player for Liverpoolthan I did.
Liverpoolhave come up with a ready-made replacement. There is no risk about this transfer at all. Dalglishis such a good player he would fit in anywhere.

“I had been trying to work out who Liverpoolwould go for and I whited it down to three players: Trevor Francis, Mike Channon or Dalglish.
Channon went to Manchester City so I reckon Liverpool have done the best they can for their fans.”
