Dalglish willing to spend again

Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish has not ruled out making another signing before the transfer window slams shut at the end of August.

Dalglish has attempted to overhaul the playing squad at Anfield this summer, bringing in Charlie Adam, Jordan Henderson, Jose Enrique, Alexander Doni and Stewart Downing.

Those arrivals have given the squad a bloated look, with the likes of Raul Meireles and Alberto Aquilani apparently surplus to requirements, but Dalglish suggests he would splash out again if he right player became available.

Asked if Liverpool's transfer business was over, Dalglish replied: "I don't know. I cannot answer it honestly. I suppose it's a little bit like last year when I was asked, 'When are you signing the contract?' or 'Have you been asked to sign?' - until the transfer window shuts, the most honest answer I can give is 'I don't know.'"

Following a disappointing start to the new season, drawing 1-1 at home to Sunderland, Liverpool will look to take advantage of Arsenal's disarray when the two sides meet at the Emirates on Saturday.

And Dalglish has issued an upbeat bulletin ahead of that match, revealing he has a virtually full-fit squad to choose from - with the notable exception of long-term absentee Steven Gerrard.

"I think there is only Glen Johnson who might be a doubt, but other than that everybody's relatively fit," Dalglish said.
