Dalglish: I have big debt to repay to Liverpool

Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish says he owes a lot to the club.

Many believe Dalglish has returned to Anfield for unfinished business.

But he insists: "There is a great debt that needs to be paid back.

"I want to do well for a football club which means so much to me. You want to do well not only for yourself but for everyone that supports the club because I would not be the Kenny Dalglish that is here today if it was not for this football club.

"It will be a bit emotive (on Sunday) I would have thought but it is for the benefit of the club and what we want is to turn that into positive vibes for everyone.

"If they (the fans) think it is nice to see me back it is not as much of an honour as it is to be back.

"We both know how we feel about each other and for me it is going to be a fantastic, and hopefully, a victorious occasion.

"It's a fantastic occasion irrespective of the personalities involved and walking up the steps again towards the dugout is something I'm really looking forward to.

"I know it is going to be an occasion where the focus might be on myself but I know the support from the fans is not just going to be for myself it is going to be for everyone.

"If we can get a lift of the back of that and get a victory then everyone will have played their part."
