Liverpool 2 Everton 2 highlights 16/1/11

Liverpool have appointed club legend Kenny Dalglish lately to take over the reigns on a temporary basis from sacked Roy Hodgson and the start of his stint has been very much an anti climax, with the FA cup exit to Manchester United at Old Trafford, then the drab defeat to newboys Blackpool midweek, Dalglish will be desperate for the team to record a victory over their merseyside rivals and also help propel the team's morale which at the moment is on the floor. It's almost 2 decades since Dalglish oversaw his last game in charge, a thrilling 4-4 draw with Everton, which following the match saw him resign. the 59 year old is hold in very high regard by the supporters, possibly in higher regard than any other player, as his scoring record and record of trophy success whilst he was there is colossal. His godlike status could take a huge dent if he fails to lift the club's fortunes this season.

Most of the talk going into the merseyside derby will be of Dalglish and Liverpool needing a win but the blues also need to start winning as they are too on a downward slide in the league. The 2 Liverpool sides are almost crying on each other's shoulders in the league as they are right next to each other, a point apart and suffering from a very dour series of performances. This makes the result of Sunday's match ever the more important as both teams are hovering 4 points away from the drop zone and the losers could find themselves in a very precarious position trying to climb back up the premiership standings. The match takes place at Anfield Road stadium and kicks off at 2:05pm.
