DALGLISH: TITLE TILT STILL ON THE CARDS
Paul Hassall 15 September 2009
Kenny Dalglish is confident Liverpool can prove their doubters wrong by ending 2009-10 as Barclays Premier League champions.
The Reds legend believes Rafael Benitez's men will recover from the disappointment of early season defeats against Aston Villa and Tottenham, insisting it is premature to make any snap judgements about their title hopes.
"That's all right, let them keep writing us off," Dalglish told Liverpoolfc.tv. "We'll add the points up at the end of the season and see what happens.
"Certainly when you lose a home game it is a disappointment, but it wouldn't be the first time that a team has lost a home game and gone on and won the league, so we'll keep our fingers crossed.
"We can achieve whatever we want to achieve. We go out in every game to achieve maximum points, or get through the cup tie, whatever is relevant. We go out on the pitch with the same determination as we have ever done to be successful.
"We've never shouted our mouth off, we've just got on with our work, and I'm sure that's what the players are doing at the moment.
"They played very well on Saturday. Yossi Benayoun getting a hat-trick was fantastic for him and for everyone, I think it is starting to come together."
