Kenny Dalglish has described his return to the role of Liverpool manager as a 'great honour' and has also paid tribute to predecessor Roy Hodgson

It was confirmed on Saturday that Dalglish, who guided the Anfield club to three league titles in his original tenure between 1985 and 1992, will be boss until the end of the season following the sacking of Hodgson.
The decision of Liverpool's owners has meant that Dalglish has had to swiftly return to England from what was understood to be a holiday in Dubai in order to be ready for Sunday's FA Cup third-round match to arch-rivals Manchester United.
Having flown back to Manchester, the Scot has admitted his pride at returning to manage under-achieving Liverpool, but he admits his regret that Hodgson had to leave Merseyside.
"It is a great honour to be asked to come back," Dalglish told Sky Sports News at Manchester airport.
