Kenny Dalglish Praises Support Of Owners In Transfer Market

Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish believes the owners of the Merseyside club are fully committed to continue rebuilding the squad in the summer.

Fenway Sports Group have already broken the club's transfer record to secure the £35 million signing of Andy Carroll from Newcastle United and also brought in Uruguayan star Luis Suarez from Ajax for £22.8m.

The departure of Fernando Torres to Chelsea for £50m and Ryan Babel for £6m means the Reds' big money signings have not hindered the transfer budget in the future.

And Dalglish now believes more activity will follow in the summer.

"The owners have been fantastically supportive during this window, which was busy but I think very beneficial to the football club," said the Scot.

"In fact they may be slightly disappointed they didn't get someone else.

"Anyone who had any doubts about hunger or anybody taking this club forward, they're gone now. In the summer we'll be looking forward to trying to enhance what we've got."
