Dalglish praises Liverpool's massive week

Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish has praised his side for their cup exploits this week, as he reflected on a double victory over Manchester rivals Man Utd and Man City. Yesterday, Liverpool dumped Manchester United out of the FA Cup with a 2-1 win at Anfield.

Dalglish said: "It's been a fantastic week for the players. Everyone realises the history of the football club and the players want to be part of it.


"It was a magnificent effort from them. After the game on Wednesday, to come back on Saturday morning and win showed tremendous commitment and great heart. United might have been the better side and had more possession but, other than them hitting the woodwork once, Pepe Reina didn't have that much to do."
