Kenny Dalglish relishing "massive game"

Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish has admitted that Wednesday's derby tie with Everton is a "massive game".

Dalglish has also accepted that their current run of form - three successive league defeats - has not been acceptable.

"It is a massive game, like any derby is for any club involved in one. We know how much enjoyment the people get out of winning the game but the players get a lot of enjoyment out of it also," Dalglish told The Mirror.

Regarding the recent run, Dalglish added: "It depends what teams you're playing but certainly it's not a record you expect from Liverpool."

Liverpool sit seventh in the Premier League table.
