Posted Monday, June 27, 2011 by YAHOO Sport
Liverpool defender Daniel Agger has hailed boss Kenny Dalglish and assistant Steve Clarke for reviving the team’s fortunes last season and believes the duo can go on to achieve great things at Anfield.
Dalglish has been widely praised for his level of performance since returning to management with the Merseyside giants last January, taking over from Roy Hodgson with the team languishing in 12th place in the table and leading them to the brink of Europa League qualification.
Having originally assumed the roles in a caretaker capacity until the end of the season, both Dalglish and Clarke have been rewarded for their efforts with three-year-deals, and Agger is in no doubt as to the level of the duo’s impact at Anfield.
“It is a different way of playing football,” the Dane told Liverpoolfc.tv. “The training sessions are enjoyable.
"People talk about confidence and it is such a big thing in football because it can change from one day to another.
"The main change is about being positive. Playing positive football and that's the biggest difference."
Agger also believes the presence of Dalglish and Clarke in the Liverpool dugout promises a bright future for the club.
"I like Kenny's playing style and I think it suits Liverpool,” he added. “It suits the football club and it suits the fans.
"I was really happy he and Steve Clarke signed their deals. Steve has made a big, big impact and he is really good. I can't say enough good things about him.
"Kenny suits this club. He knows everything about it, and the fans know him. It's positive for the future."
