Kenny Dalglish: Liverpool are so lucky to have Luis Suarez
KENNY DALGLISH admits Liverpool are lucky to have Luis Suarez in their ranks.

The Uruguay sharp-shooter helped sink Wolves at Anfield with a magical first-half strike.

He picked up Jose Enrique's flick, turned Christophe Berra and slotted home after Roger Johnson's own-goal had given the Reds the lead.

And Dalglish said: "Suarez has been outstanding since he came to the club.

"We are very fortunate to have him and we look forward to many more happy days with him because he is a fantastic footballer."

Steven Fletcher nabbed one back after the break and for a while Wolves had Liverpool on the rack.

Yet Dalglish insists his charges were good for the win. The Kop boss added: "I think it deserved three points, although it was difficult at times.

"They put us under a bit of pressure in the first half and then scored early in the second half which gave them a bit of momentum.

"We had a few headers and blocks to make but at the other end we broke away and hit the bar twice and their goalkeeper made an unbelievable save from Luis.

"We maybe got a bit of good fortune with the first goal with it coming off Johnson but I think we deserve a bit of luck because we haven't had much recently.

"We will continue to plod on and with a bit of luck in the second half, with the two that hit the post, we could have had another couple.

"We have got three points, we may get the luck some other day when we need it."

Wolves chief Mick McCarthy says his side paid for a tough first half that saw them fall 2-0 down.

He added: "We had a difficult first half and an excellent second half.

"I thought first 10 minutes we started okay but then we conceded a goal, for which I thought Roger Johnson was fouled by Carroll and I was annoyed about that.

"The second one we tried to play offside and did it badly and it cost us."
