He was a great player no question over that

dalglish is a very good club man and as a player and some of his management time he was great plus his great work with the hillsbrough families , but there is no doubt it was dalglish and his decisions that started liverpool's decline and knocked liverpool off its perch , plus to buy the awful charlie adam and the rest of the madness including the suarez business proves he should never be manager of liverpool .

What do you know?

what he's best at now is just being an iconic figurehead. He's a legend, and irrespective of his failings as a manager, the memories of his playing days are so great - that's what we need to remember him for. as well his commitment to the fans & the club.

He hasn't committed any crimes. only honest mistakes perhaps - we can't hold them against him really, apart from not letting him be the manager again.

I have watched the club for 50 years not that means I know a lot. But I have an opinion based on my experience in particular watching every game live from about 86 to 93 (home and away) and I saw the club / team disintegrate before my eyes. In my view the principle driver was Dalglish,s mismanagement allowing the team to grow old and not adapt to the way the game was heading. You can insult me all you like but you wont pursuade me otherwise. I hate the man for what he did and he came back for another try and had FSG not sacked him would have done the same damage all over again.

Maybe but pretty big mistakes. He should not be allowed anywhere near the club. Great player but how can anyone with half a brain think the rest of it is good is beyond me.

I am being honest here, I am sure Daglish was an exceptional player, but he was way out of his depth as a manager in his last term at Liverpool. He was only chosen because it was the cheap option and to give us the false allusion of the return of the 'messiah'.

He was way out of his depth the first time round. Mad tactics and mad buys jimmy carter / david speedie etc.

way out of hid depth is stretching it a bit too far. We got to two cup finals winning one. Prior to that, we hadn't won anything since 2006. He was a godsend following the Roy debacle. Yes, ideally we should've got a modern manager, but I wouldn't describe him as out of his depth.

Look at the pressure arsenal have been under for not winning anything for 8 years now.

I don't agree mighty. If dalglish had not been sacked I am not sure he would still be here. You could see he was under pressure with the press conferences and it was the same pre 1991. I don't think he has the temperament
