Former Liverpool striker John Aldridge, signed by Dalglish in 1987 in his first successful spell at Anfield, believes the most important thing the Scot has achieved is to restore the club's footballing values.

"He has got us playing football. It is a lot better and there is now a feelgood factor," Aldridge told Press Association Sport.

"With all due respect we weren't playing good football because I think the players lost a bit of belief in Roy and themselves.

"Kenny just grabbed it by the scruff of the neck and got people actually believing in themselves.

"The squad he inherited under-achieved. It wasn't great and should have been doing better than what it was.

"There was a bit of negativity surrounding them but he got them thinking positively straight away and got the ball down and got them playing.

"There has been progression. From where it was this time last year to what I am watching now is a lot better.

"We are not the finished article - we know that and so does Kenny - but at least you can see progression.

"We can get in the top four if we sort our own form out and can win the three big games at Anfield - Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham - we have one hell of a chance of doing it."
