Kenny Dalglish: What was Liverpool hero Glen Johnson doing?

KENNY DALGLISH watched Glen Johnson stick the knife in to his former team-mates and wondered what he was up to.

Liverpool full-back Johnson sealed victory over Chelsea when he went past Ashley Cole and Florent Malouda to score an 87th-minute winner.

And Kop boss Dalglish smiled: "It was a great finish from Glen... but I don't know what he was doing up there.

"The fact our right-back was up in their box in the 87th minute shows how much we wanted to win this game.

"It was a great result and matched our ambition to come here and get all three points.

"We won here last year as well but now I think we are looking a better team."

Johnson, 27, admitted: "I was probably the last player people would have expected to score the winner. But I was grateful to get the chance.

"I've had a few difficult months but I feel like I'm getting back to full fitness and I feel good."

Liverpool are now unbeaten in their last nine games and Dalglish added: "We had a lot of really good performances today and deserved the result."
