Liverpool boss Dalglish delighted with Reina cleansheets record

Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish is delighted for Pepe Reina over his ten cleansheets this season.

While Dalglish is delighted with the form of his Spanish stopper, the boss insists it has been a collective push that has meant Liverpool have conceded two fewer than league leaders City.

"The clean sheet on Monday was Pepe's 10th of the season, which puts him at the top of the list in the division," Dalglish told LFC Magazine.

"But while it is the goalkeeper who gets the recognition, everybody plays a part in achieving those clean sheets. Pepe made a really good save late on in the game on Monday and, like the rest of the team, made an important contribution to us getting the result.

"Like everything else, whether you're attacking the goal or whether you're defending it, everybody has to be taken into consideration. They have all made a contribution to us not losing too many goals.

"The forwards work hard to play their part and you could go straight through the team. In the same way, everybody contributes to making a goal."
