Ex-Liverpool boss Evans back Dalglish - 'Stability is huge'

Former Liverpool manager Roy Evans believes Kenny Dalglish is the right man for the job at Anfield.

The day after the club parted ways with sporting director Damien Comolli and head doctor Peter Brukner, Evans has spoken out about his desire to see Dalglish stay at the helm as a show of solidarity in an ever-changing modern day environment .

"Stability is hugely important in football," Evans told Yahoo Sports.

"Nowadays in football, the players never seem to bear any responsibility when things go wrong and it is always the manager who gets blamed.

"You see some clubs chopping and changing managers at will, and something needs to be done about that.

"You look at the most successful clubs, and they are the ones where the manager has been given time to get his feet under the table and do his job properly.

"Owners need to show some patience, and realise you cannot simply buy success while changing the manager every season."
