At last. Something we can all agree on. Dalglish is a miserable twat.
Having said that, I would have thought that Sunderland fans would hold him dear to their hearts, for the way he dismantled Keegan's entertainers, and replaced many of the flair players with his over the hill pals, such as John Barnes, Ian Rush etc.
Don't rate the man at all. For example, he took a talented young Jon Dahl Thomassen, who specialised in ghosting into the box, from midfield, like the great Martin Peters, and tried to turn him into a traditional english type centre forward. He ruined him in the process, and he left as a flop, only to go on to be a huge success, with both Feyenoord (55 goals in 122 appearances) and AC Milan (22 goals in 76 appearances). He also scored 52 goals for Denmark, in 112 appearances.
With the bindippers, Dalglish has spent fortunes on what was supposed to be exciting young english talent, and turned them into crap. The Midas Touch in reverse, so to speak. Long may he continue in this work!
