Re: Kuyt is our Aimar

I'm very happy with the way that Kuyt and Bellamy's partnership seems to be working out. It makes sense that Bellamy should be a bit more advanced, since his pace when playing off the shoulder of the last defender will be telling, so Kuyt will drop a bit deeper.

I think Dirk will go on to be prolific for us as well. He hit the post yesterday and missed several decent chances. On another day he could have had a hat-trick. I feel he will still get 15-20 league goals and a similar amount of assists this season. And that won't be bad at all for a first season in a new league/country. Don't forget that as a team we didn't start scoring freely until recently, so Dirk's ultimate tally will be less than if we had hit the ground running.

Very happy with the partnership with Bellamy though. If this is Robbie's last season (resonable assumption, given likely cash influx) then it will take a very special striker to oust what now looks to be our first choice pairing. And Crouch is very useful to have around as well. There's not too many who can give us what he does, whether we are loaded or not.
