KENNY'S FROM HEAVEN Dalglish was a celestial presence at Liverpool as player and manager but, as a new film reminds us, his extraordinary talent was very much forged in Glasgow with Celtic

We're back at Wembley in 1986. Liverpool have just beaten Everton to win the FA Cup and seal a double which seemed unthinkable at the turn of the year.

Appointed player-manager the previous summer, Kenny Dalglish is reflecting on a week which began with him clinching the title with a goal at Stamford Bridge - and culminated in him masterminding a 3-1 win over Howard Kendall’s men.

There’s a banner in the background as he does a flash TV interview at full-time: ‘Kenny’s from heaven.’

The interviewer asks Dalglish if that feels like where he’s been for the past week.
