Sir Kenny Dalglish: Liverpool, Advice for Wirtz & Starting at Celtic | Stick to Football EP 96

Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE.

In this episode, Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Roy Keane, Jill Scott and Ian Wright are joined by one of the greatest to ever play the game, Sir Kenny Dalglish.

Kenny reflects on his early career at Celtic, including what it was like joining the club as a boyhood Rangers fan, before making the move to Liverpool where he went on to dominate English football. He opens up on becoming a successful player-manager, the highs of winning trophies, and the tragedy of Hillsborough, one of the most difficult times in his life.

We also hear about his decision to leave Liverpool, his emotional return to the club, and his thoughts on the current side under Arne Slot as the Reds look to write a new chapter in their history.
