"He pied us off straight away."
That's how Mark Lawrenson remembers the transition of Kenny Dalglish from dressing room mate at Liverpool to successful player-manager.
At 34, Dalglish stepped up to succeed Joe Fagan for the 1985–86 season and delivered the club's only league and FA Cup double at the first time of asking.
Just for good measure, Scotland's most capped player also banged in the goal that secured the title.
It all sounds like plain sailing but Lawrenson recalls heated on-field arguments and a suddenly curtailed social life, along with all of the joyful celebrations.
