# Lawro Warns Dalglish To Put Some Experience Into The Mix

Former [Liverpool](https://live4liverpool.com/tag/liverpool) defender [Mark Lawrenson](https://live4liverpool.com/tag/mark-lawrenson) believes the Reds owners will have to show a lot more money to [Kenny Dalglish](https://live4liverpool.com/tag/kenny-dalglish) in the summer than the £1million net spend which they gave the Reds during the January transfer window. Writing in his column for the *Liverpool Daily Post*, he said:

> ***“I’m sure talks have already happened and Kenny would love the job, although he is likely to have told John Henry that if they are to challenge for a Champions League spot next season then he’ll need X, Y and Z. So far the new American owners have spent a net £1m but a greater outlay will be required in the summer.***
>
> ***Although Liverpool will want to continue a pursuit of young players for the future – like Carroll and Suarez – a couple of experienced players are necessary.”***

Lawro also praised the performance of youngster [John Flanagan](https://live4liverpool.com/tag/john-flanagan) against [Manchester City](https://live4liverpool.com/tag/manchester-city) on Monday night:

> ***“Looking further back at Liverpool’s line-up and the debut of John Flanagan of course stood out. In many ways Kenny Dalglish did not have too many options at right-back ahead of the game but the teenager did absolutely fine.***
>
> ***But until you throw someone like John into the first team then you’ll never know how they will cope. Much like Martin Kelly, we need to give John 15-20 games before we truly can form an opinion. But John has made a positive start and must now keep his feet on the floor.”***
