For me, Kuyt has very little to offer. With all due respect, industry and hard work is the Minimum we should get from every player. Kuyt has no pace, a poor touch, not inventive or intelligent and not a particularly good finisher when he manages to get into the box. With most strikers you can usually put them into some sort of bracket such as quick, clever, a good finisher, good in the air or even hold the ball up well but with Kuyt yhe is none with the exception that he is honest. This for me is the only thing that puts him ahead of Shaun 'Mick' Dundee or even Paul Stewart. In fact I's sooner have fellow dutchman 'Mad' Eric Meijer I dont think I am being unfair here but I have watched him very closely in games this season (not on TV) and he is very poor. At Wigan, some of the positions he took up were unbelievable to say the least. Nice bloke he maybe be but I think we need to cut our losses IMHO Sorry for being negative
