Defender Jamie Carragher has confessed that he is constantly concerned about the future of Liverpool in the wake of the club's problems over the past 18 months.
The 18-time champions of England failed to qualify for the UEFA Champions League last season and severely struggled under Roy Hodgson for the first half of the current campaign.
Liverpool was also on the brink of administration in October before new parent company, Fenway Sports Group, took over from George Gillett and Tom Hicks.
But Anfield legend Kenny Dalglish succeeded Hodgson and has transformed fortunes to put the top four of the Premier League within touching distance after a six-match unbeaten run.
When asked if he was genuinely concerned, Carragher said: "Every day! To be honest, it's been like that for a little while.
"Stevie [Gerrard] and I are so involved emotionally, sometimes too much, and it affects your whole life, and the last 18 months have been really tough.
"We've not been doing too well and the fans are your friends and family and it takes its toll.
"So it's great that the pressure has lessened off and people are starting talking about the top four.
"Dalglish's presence and who he is has galvanized the whole club - players and supporters. I don't need to tell you what he means to the club and the fans."
