Ben Davies would be better than Bertrand, but still not a big upgrade on what we have at the club.

Well he's certainly fond of the Cruyff turn.

More pace than I assumed as well. Not the sort to burn past superfast full backs but it's pace on the ball which is even better.

Nah he's not really that fast, the video is just sped up to make him appear faster.

It's one of the most important positions in modern football, full back, I would have no complaints if the club spent big on a left back.

Many are championing Moreno, though I must admit I haven't seen much of him.

Davies is quite a competent left back but I don't think he has a high ceiling.

Kuyt showing exactly why some were happy hes gone - not being able to find a pass from 10 yards is a crime at that level

Your hatred for Dirk is bizarre.

Hardly bizarre given how frustrating it is to watch him give the ball away time after time, all his passes are 5 yards, anything outside of that goes amiss - for a top level player I would expect a bit more

Many a point liverpool earned because of his hard work. He may not have been the most technically gifted, but he worked hard making important tackles in defence and scoring important goals at the other end. He came to liverpool as a goal scoring striker and never complained about being pushed out onto the wing, he just got on with it.

I really don't understand how any liverpool fan can have any bad feeling towards the guy. I'm proud to have seen him in a liverpool shirt and wish him well in his career.

EDIT: If we had a few more players with his attitude last season we'd have won the league

I like dirk and want him to do well but his passing and ball controle when playing for liverpool used to infuriate me

lol - I dont think its a coincidence we start to do better after he left - he's a donkey, runs around a lot, if you need a donkey in your team then hes your man - thankfully BR sees it that way too

Great post..I love Kuyt for all the points you raised above..

The film Rudy could have been based on Kuyt..

And that's fair enough, and something I'd agree to myself, but given his past and present comments (here and in tonight's match thread) on Dirk, he seems to have a irrational hatred for him.

Kuyt is such a smart adaptable player.

Great great example to players everywhere, miss the guy myself.

also went to check on mascherano to see if he was ok as he was leaving the field for attention.

lol "irrational" - seems like a big word for you - are you a writer Sahin, a pundit? :pac::pac::pac::pac:

Soft Falling Rain

Poor oul Masch took some wallop there, nice moment between himself and Dirk afterwards.

Turtyturd

Shocking clearance from Kuyt there...didn't find a team mate.

gafferino

We should buy Kuyt and Mascherano

Personally I think it's poor form for any Liverpool fan to speak about Dirk like that. Never the most stylish player needless to say but gave everything he had for the cause and was a big game player.

You are right my friend, how dare I post my opinion on our beloved Dirk - gave everything he had for the cause, not the most tactically astute player, but hey, we got oxygen from him :pac::pac::pac:

K-9

Weird. Anyway, Dirks a legend.

Writing teenage-style abbreviations - lol, lmao - at the start of every post doesn't make everyone think you're really clever and funny, you know.

Just trying to help.

Can you discuss Something Liverpool related please or even football related and something a tad more rational, considered, articulate and constructive than your thoughts on Kuyt.

Ah lads!!

OwaynOTT

Kuyt, Hat-trick, Utd, donkey, superkuyt. One of these words is not like the other, one of these words just doesn't belong.

I think the one thing we can all agree on, is that Kuyt is one handsome bastard.

Caught offside(yeah? I know) are reporting that betting on Higuain joining us has slipped from 16/1 to 11/2 today so take that as what you wish.

Also one or 2 links to Fazio from Torino, i assume as a backup to Lovren being too dear.

Can't bate a good transfer rumour:-)

Rumours that Torres is coming back to Liverpool.

Me da told me so.

Kuyt, Mash, Maxi...

Actually think he's a decent player. Only 21 as well. Not an exciting name granted but I would take him ahead of Bertrand.

Love Dirk and think he's a rightful Liverpool legend, but can't be having that at all. There's a reason why he's playing in Turkey these days.

Davies over Bertrand everytime.

At least he is playing in Turkey and not like a turkey.

rob316

Ffs if moreno is first choice just go get him and pay over the odds. We are willing to over pay for lallana and lovren two players who are less of a priority. LB has been a problem position for yonks.
