Fuck me, you're tedious grjt.

Anyway, let's play a game. I'll post several views on Kuyt written by other posters on this forum, and you can all guess who wrote them. OK? Here's the first. (I'll give you a clue: it's by someone who had a go at me in this thread for saying Kuyt 'wasn't all that good at football').


Kuyt's a shit striker and shit winger, he works hard but his best attributes are physical ones rather than football ones, he gives 110% every game which naturally endears him to alot of people, but we want to win the league, and if I have to watch that cunt hog the right wing much longer while Robinho, Ronaldo, SWP and a dozen others run amok for other sides, I'll fucking despair.

He's shit.

Go on, have a guess...
 
Was it me? 🙂

I posted earlier in reply to Brendan that I'd posted the Kuyt thread that's now in the vault, I also explained my reasons why he's now won me over.

I'm guessing it's me or Oncy anyway.

OK, I don't think he is a great footballer, I certainly don't rate hi as highly than others, he tries to make up for his shortcomings by working very hard, and for some of the time that is enough.

Nobody is saying he's a great footballer.

Its pretty straight forward - it was stated that he's not a very good player > the statement is patently bollocks > you said you sympathised..... im confused. Are you saying he is or he isnt? Or were you simply defending another poster that you "get on with"?
[/quote]

I think you are confusing sympathise for wholehearted agreement.
Just for the record and I would say Bunny would probably agree with me on this, I would hardly say we "get on" that well.
I have always had my doubts about aspects of Dirk's ability and that is fairly well documented, and I don't want anyone to start thinking I am jumping on a bandwagon that includes a decent showing in the world cup, and that fact he he doing the decent thing for Liverpool.
What a strange tree you are barking up.

Youre clearly right....obviously I completely disagree, but I SYMPATHISE with your opinion.

You are actually making yourself look a bit more stupid, and a bigger cunt than you actually think you are

On the other hand, winning something could just whet his appetite and make him realise what he wants more of it. Could go either way really.

Unless things change drastically in the final he'll be proud to know he's done fuck all to earn the medal...

*Puts hand up tentatively*

Was....was it....errr....grjt, Mr. Bunnyman Sir?
 
What the merry fuck is going on now?

Bloody hell, he's a good player, some people think he isn't, they're wrong, the end
 
Every team needs a Dirk like player. A player always available and works hard and is intelligent. In talent stakes he is slightly lacking, but ive grown to accept although we may need technically better, very few will work as hard and as selflessly as him

Plus he's a thoroughly nice bloke
 
Wasn't it Hiddink who said if he had Kuyt he'd be the first player on his teamsheet? Rafa too and the current Dutch coach. Dirk is more than the sum of his parts through his sheer infectious drive, a quality that is as rare and precious as the talents displayed by more obviously technically gifted players. I love him.
 
I'd make him captain if Gerrard left. He'd just edge Pepe as I like the captain to be an outfield player.
 
Another thing that Deadly deserves to have chalked up to his credit is that big occasions don't faze him in front of goal. The winning pen.against the Chavs in that unforgettable CL semi-final at Anfield, the two goals against the blueslime in that derby game, the goal in Athens (even though we lost) - I'd hate to lose anyone who can do that.
 
Very much so. If he does score on Sunday he will enter a rather special group of players who have scored in that final and the European Cup Final:

Gerd Muller
Zinedine Zidane
Dirk Kuyt


Go on Dirk!

But what if Casillas gets injured and he has to beat Pepe 😱

Hmmm. It would have to be an unstoppable thunderbolt, after Pepe has made a series of stunning saves to keep Spain in it.
 
I think if Dirk had a reliably good first touch it would be enough to go from a good player to a pretty much almost brilliant one.

He's not, and never will be, the most technically gifted of lads, but I think just this small transformation would make a massive difference

That is my biggest qualm with kuyt. It's his touch that pisses me off. Otherwise he's everything I would want from a player
 
Yeah, most of the time it's like the cliche "His second touch is a tackle" was written for him, but there have been times when I've seen him take one of Xabi's 60 yard crossfield with an exquisite delicacy.

I think more than anything it's the inconsistency that frustrates. Some days you watch him and think "Top 4 teams would be happy to have that starting" and yet other days it's just dreadful. I know everybody has good spells and bad spells, but Dirk's range between the two seems to be greater than most
 
We should give Kuyt the 7 shirt. He'd do it justice and would be fully aware of it's significance. It's doing him no harm for Holland.

Is there any other kind?
 
phraraoaorar. Jesus Christ...........an average footballer with an above average work-rate and an infectious enthusiasm, which probably makes him better than that average footballer.
Yes he's nice to have, and he's nice to cuddle up to. People have short memories, much of last season he was dire, it's a good thing there are a few realists around here to save you plunging too deeply into an irreversible Dirk-fest.

If this is everyones pinnacle then we are fucking easily pleased, and if it was accepted by people who actually matter, probably are really doomed to mediocrity.
Great to have around the place, great team player, and I don't dismiss the effect of him pledging his troth at all, I think the rest of the players also think the world of him, but we can't afford that as a luxury.
We need players that are effective technically and make the difference regularly with the ball, hard work and enthusiasm are not in themselves enough to justify a permanent place in the side.
If we had Turan on the left, Maxi on the right and a half decent forward to help Torres , where would that leave Dirk?
Look chaps, sad as it may seem - nice guys don't always win, there is far too much sentiment involved in peoples thinking on this.
Dirk is a great lad , would die for the cause and is a great squad player, but, if we have any ambition of fighting our way back he should not be an an automatic choice
