Dalglish ready for Cup Final

Last updated : 02 May 2012 By Adam Bryant

"We've given everybody an opportunity to get themselves fit and I don't think we've got any injuries, apart from the long-term ones in Lucas and Charlie Adam," said the Reds boss.

"In a way, it's made it a little bit more difficult that everybody is fit but every team you pick is always a difficult task. We go into Saturday's game with a full squad of players, apart from the two lads."

"We're quite happy with the mood round and about the football club. Everybody knows it's going to be a really difficult game and nobody will underestimate Chelsea with the run they're on.

"I wouldn't know if it's confidence or not, but it's certainly not arrogance. We've got a huge deal of respect for Chelsea Football Club and what they've done.

"We've already tasted a cup final this year in the Carling Cup. Getting to the FA Cup final is never to be undermined, overlooked or overestimated in anyway - it's a fantastic day out for everybody.

"It's great reward for the effort, commitment and respect we've paid to the competition with the teams we've fielded. We think we deserve to be there and we're happy to be there."
