Under fire Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish blamed tiredness for the Reds' surprise home defeat to Wigan at the weekend. Liverpool lost 2-1 to the Latics courtesy of a Shaun Maloney penalty and a Gary Caldwell late winner.

  • But Dalglish refused to blame his players for the defeat, and insisted three games in six days may have been responsible for the defeat.



    "Every single one of them is capable of passing to someone in the same colour shirt," Dalglish told BBC Sport.



    "But I think the toll of three games in six days took the edge off them a little bit.



    "It doesn't matter how good you are, you still need to have a bit of bounce of the ball with some decisions.



    "If that is the schedule, we have to live with it and we have to have a stronger squad to be able to handle it."
