One of the greatest passers of a football in British football history, Kenny Dalglish wasn’t just a great goalscorer, but he was equally as adept at creating goals for others too. 
In a commentary in the eighties, Alan Parry called Kenny Dalglish ‘The Creator Supreme’ – and the term suits him perfectly. At Liverpool, he struck up an unstoppable partnership with the prolific Ian Rush and helped Liverpool to numerous domestic and European honours.
When Joe Fagan retired from the manager’s hotseat at Anfield, it was Kenny who took over, initially as player manager. His first act was to win the double. He scored the title-winning goal at Stamford Bridge and helped his side to the FA Cup in a thrilling final against Everton.
His 30 goals for Scotland remain an all-time record, shared with the great Dennis Law, but Dalglish never really made the impact on the international game that his talent suggested, but at club and European level, Dalglish proved beyond doubt that he was one of, if not the best player every produced by Scotland.
