MY LIVERPOOL HOME: THEN AND NOW

The word 'iconic' captures the essence of Kenny Dalglish's standing among the massive number of Liverpool supporters worldwide. Among the figures whose feats have earned a special place in Liverpudlian hearts, Dalglish stands at the top along with Bill Shankly. Dalgish is often shown alongside Rafael Benitez, Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres.My Liverpool Years deals with Dalglish's long relationship with football. He grew up playing for Jock Stein at Celtic, later returning as a co-manager with John Barnes. He won 102 Scotland caps, and had a memorable period in charge of Newcastle United. Rafa Benitez has restored the European Cup to the Anfield trophy room in the most incredible circumstances. But despite the emergence of Gerrard, Torres, Jamie Carragher and co, Liverpool have still not recaptured the League title they won almost as if by divine right during the reign of 'King Kenny' as player, player-manager and manager. It has become the grail.Dalglish will focus on Liverpool; the legacy of Shankly, the underrated brilliance of Bob Paisley and the influence of the Boot Room; the personalities he has encountered there, both as an active participant and a supposedly detached observer, from Graeme Souness and Hansen through the dark days of the mid-1990s and most importantly to the present day.
