Description:
The King Takes Over: Liverpool and the Dalglish Years 1985- 1991 is a fast-paced and nostalgic account of a time when Liverpool were the best team in the land, and played a brilliant style of football still talked about more than 30 years on. It is the story of how Liverpool' s greatest player became one of its greatest managers. Taking a wistful look back at the glory years of 1985- 1991, the book revisits the great games and goals of the Kenny Dalglish era. It examines the circumstances of the Heysel tragedy and how Dalglish became Liverpool' s first player-manager in the darkest period in both the club and the city' s history, amid the chaos wrought by Thatcher' s government. How did the Hillsborough disaster impact Dalglish, the club, players and fans? How did John Barnes, the first black player signed by Liverpool, overcome racism from the terraces to become a legend in red? Why did the Reds not win the championship for 30 years after 1990? What were the real circumstances behind Dalglish' s shock resignation in 1991?
