Stephane Henchoz believes Kenny Dalglish will help Liverpool write another successful chapter in their illustrious history books.

The former Reds defender has been impressed by the impact the Scot has made since returning to the Anfield hot seat in January, during which time he steered the team from 12th to sixth in the Barclays Premier League.

And Henchoz is predicting Dalglish can position Liverpool amongst the forerunners for the game’s top honours once again.

He told Liverpoolfc.tv: “I think the future looks bright. Kenny Dalglish is back as the manager and I am sure he is going to bring back success to Anfield. The players they have signed, especially Suarez, have done very well.

“The young players have got a lot of quality, so for me next year I think they will get back into the top four and from there they can push on from that.

“Hopefully in a couple of years time they can win the title.”

Henchoz was back on Merseyside over the weekend as he helped a team of Liverpool legends to glory in the Selco Mersey Masters at the Echo Arena.

The Swiss defender displayed the sort of defensive qualities that made him such a hit with Reds fans during his five-and-a-half year spell at Anfield, as well as turning on the style in attack.

“I had a great time and winning the tournament made everybody, including the fans in the arena, happy,” reflected Henchoz.

“I played in Malaysia a few months ago for the first time, and playing in the Masters in Liverpool and wearing the shirt again was a great pleasure.

“It’s very different to when you are still playing because you just want to enjoy it. You still want to win, obviously, but you don’t have the same pressure.

“It was nice to see the players again, come back to the city and have a drink with the lads. I think everybody really enjoyed it.”
