Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish has warned his squad he won't tolerate any prima donnas.

Dalglish proved once again last week that price tags or reputations will not influence his selection policy when he named £35million Andy Carroll, £20m Stewart Downing and £16m Jordan Henderson among his substitutes at Chelsea.

"It is not pleasant and it is understandable there's disappointment if you are not playing every game," said Dalglish. "It is a long season and everyone is going to be given their chance. But if they are not committed to playing, we will go and get people who are determined to play."
