Benitez impressed by Kuyt
influence
Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez has welcomed Dirk Kuyt's return to
the scoresheet, but insists the Dutch striker has nothing left to
prove at Anfield. Kuyt took his Reds tally to seven with a fine
strike in the New Year's Day win over Bolton but Benitez believes
he has already proved that he offers much more than just
goals.
Benitez said: "Kuyt is a player who can score goals and give a lot
of assists and he is working really hard for the team. I am really
pleased for him. For me it is not a problem who scores."He added:
"When we were playing with Peter Crouch and Kuyt and winning five
in a row, people were talking about the understanding. Then we
played Bellamy and people said he was fantastic.
"Maybe Kuyt keeps the other player's ability to play well. Because
he is working so hard, the others can just play offensive football
and think about scoring goals."
