Kenny Dalglish insists it is not his concern how Sunday’s controversial penalty decision affected Sunderland following Liverpool’s 2-0 win at the Stadium of Light.\n<\/p>\n

The Black Cats will be left disappointed after a dubious call by official Kevin Friend led to Dirk Kuyt’s opening strike from the spot. <\/p>\n

The referee awarded the penalty after John Mensah brought down Jay Spearing, but replays indicate the challenge occurred outside the area. <\/p>\n

Asked about the effect that decision had on the home side, Dalglish insisted he was only focused on Liverpool and what it had meant for them. <\/p>\n

Reward<\/h4>\n

“I don’t know how the penalty affected Sunderland. Whatever it did to Sunderland was none of my concern,” Dalglish told Sky Sports News<\/i>. <\/p>\n

“It’s what it did to us. We just kept playing and kept defending when we had to defend. <\/p>\n

“We tried to break as often as we could and we got a reward for that.”<\/p>\n

January-signing Andy Carroll, making his first Premier League start for Liverpool, failed to open his scoring account, but Dalglish was impressed with his display after he played a full match against Braga in midweek. <\/p>\n

“I thought it was a great effort for him to play 90 minutes on Thursday and 70 minutes here,” he said. “He’s not scored yet but he will score. <\/p>\n

“You can tell he’s a threat, you can tell he’s a great asset for us. You can see from the way him and Luis (Suarez) linked up a couple of times there’s going to be a lot to look forward to. <\/p>\n

“We’re delighted with the big man’s progress but I’m sure he’s pretty tired.” <\/p>\n

Suarez was on target with the second goal for the Reds but suffered a groin injury late on to take the shine off his afternoon. <\/p>\n

Dalglish says he is unsure over the severity of the knock, but admits it could rule the Uruguay hitman out of the upcoming international games. <\/p>\n

“We’ll just have to wait and see,” he added. “He’s got a couple of games with Uruguay but they’re only friendlies so if he’s injured he won’t be going.”<\/p>\n

Dalglish, who is contracted as manager until the end of the season, played down reports he has recently met with Liverpool’s American owners to discuss a permanent deal at Anfield. <\/p>\n

Supportive<\/h5>\n

“I’ve met with the owners but there’s not been any details regarding myself and a contract,” he said. <\/p>\n

“They’re fantastic owners, they were really supportive in the January transfer window. <\/p>\n

“The club is more important than me. I won’t put anyone under pressure.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n
