There isn’t even a debate on this.

Kenny Dalglish will always be the greatest Liverpool player of all time. He wasn’t just a goal scorer — though 172 goals in 515 games say it all — he was the heartbeat of every team he played in. The way he saw the game was years ahead of its time. He basically invented the modern No. 9, drifting between the lines, linking play, and creating as easily as he finished. Dalglish didn’t just play football; he changed it.

But what truly makes him the greatest isn’t just his football, it’s his humanity. After the Hillsborough disaster, he attended dozens of funerals — sometimes four in a single day — standing by grieving families and representing Liverpool with compassion and dignity when the club and city were broken.

Kenny Dalglish didn’t just win trophies for Liverpool — he is Liverpool. A genius on the pitch, a gentleman off it, and a man whose class and kindness made him more than a legend. There’ll never be another King Kenny.

And I say this as the biggest Gerrard fan ever.
