Liverpool legend Ian Rush feels they're stronger for Kenny Dalglish's return as manager.

Liverpool's record goal scorer believes Dalglish has restored the Reds fortunes and set the foundations for future glory after his first year back.

"He has this ability to give you confidence and belief, and knows how to get the best out of players. People want to play for him," Rush told liverpoolfc.tv.

"If you look at Liverpool Football Club when Kenny took over compared to where it is now, there's a massive difference.

"With Kenny it's all about the club. You win nothing as individuals; it's all about the team."
