Daily Dirk Kuyt thread.

Can anyone who has followed Eridivisie for a while tell me what was he like in Holland for Feyenoord? I'm curious. I used to see him score penalties on Eurosport now and then but the only games I saw him play before he joined Liverpool were a few friendlies for Holland.

He scored 29 goals for Feyenoord in 2005 I think. But the Dutch league isn't what it was...

But was he actually good?

29 goals is impressive in any league I'd say. Good enough to attract interest from massive clubs and your national coach.

His overall goal to game ratio in the dutch leagues was something like 0.8

Not fucking bad at all.

His dynamic play caused Dutch defenders all sorts of trouble, something the Prem is more used to.
That and he had that lil' bugger Kalou running around him.
Overall, his touch has always been shit. First at Dutch mid-tabler Utrecht, they started wondering if he'd reached his maximum level. Feyenoord snapped him up for a low-low price but there were doubts if he could handle it. After a while he started scoring loads and loads of goals and Liverpool came for him.
When he has a good game, (I think the closest he's come to his Feyenoord form was... either Bolton or Blackburn in his first season. Scored one, set one up) he'll score two, be AWESOMELY busy but you'll always have the feeling he could've had 3 or 4.

Yeah, if I had to list his strengths they'd be.

1) Intelligence on and off the ball.
2) Stamina (He can outrun any player on the face of the earth)
3) Goal poaching. (I'm a liverpool fan and Kuyt is a better goal poacher than the likes of Torres, Babel and Keane. Not seen someone like him since Fowlers early days in snatching onto the end of chances)
4) He's Dirk Kuyt.
5) ????
6) PROFIT!

He's fucking shit for the Dutch team. Runs around a lot but does nothing useful at all.
Yet Van Marwijk doesn't want to drop him :<

lern2Kuyt. His runnan takes pressure off of all the weakling Dutch players.
When he combines it with scoring and assists like Euro 2008 he can't be dropped.

Taking the pressure off of much more skilled players than him is really useful indeed. Especially when he loses the ball 9 out of 10 fukken times.

I put a bet on Kuyt to be first goalscorer at 9-1

You're not comparing dirk to God Fowler are you ? :(

Kuyt takes chances, but can't create them. And he often does a Riise and kicks it to block 306 anyway.

torres CREATES his chances.

KICKING A BALL INTO GOAL WITH HIS SHIN
>> Anonymous

Dirk Kuyt is probably the best goalscorer I've ever seen. Could Fowler or Rush force the ball into the back of the net through sheer work rate? FUCK NO. They had to rely on this "ability" lark. Dirky Dirk doesn't need any of that "technique" shite. Sure, he can control the ball further than he can pass it, but he'll fucking win that ball back, kick it straight into another defender and then have it bounce into the top corner off his arse AND HE'LL DO THAT WHENEVER WE NEED HIM TO.

He's more of a superhero than a footballer really.
