im aware of his goals and they were important, 07 at Goodisons probably my favourite derby game win because of the hilarious manner of it and he got both goals plus his 'tackle', he was great at penalties and great at rebounds but there were quite a few games where i wondered why he wasn't dropped

 

Yeah, great at penalties and rebounds.

 

Why have Holland picked him 98 times in your opinion?

Apart from being a hairy ginger dude, Kuyt is like the dependable ugly chick that always brings you Kentucky and that beer you like and always gives you her best in the sack. She's not a stunner and she knows it. Thus she tries much harder to please than the beauty queen. That is her beauty.

Exactly.  The butterfly aint gonna break her back for you like that.  You do the moth.

Remember reading a great interview with him back in the day, about how his Dad was a deep-sea fisherman in hard conditions, and how it shaped who he is.  You could really see that in him, and in this era it makes him very rare as a footballer I can relate to and admire as a bloke.  He also said his missus was still working as a nurse when he'd made it and after they had their first child, pulling night shifts because she wanted to help others.

 

Good people.

Everyone likes him because of his effort and its good to look back and say he's boss but on a week to week basis in the 09/10 season he certainly wasn't

Unlike everyone else that season.  We deffo would've won the title - and the owners and the fans would've all been united behind the manager - if it weren't for deadweight Dirk, the bastard.

 

 

(That's sarcasm, by the way.)

Consumate Pro who gave everything for the team, an all round top bloke, and when he hangs up his boots he can genuinely say he left everything on the pitch every week.

 

Loved his debut, where his enthusiasm coming off the bench was great to see. Feyenoord fans all over Anfield that day.

I was at that game, may have had a drink, who was it against, West Ham? Remember him coming on like a man possessed and bombing around all over the pitch. Whatever Rafa's instructions were I don't think he heard them,unless he said chase everything!

I was gutted that Dirk's goal in the 2012 League Cup Final turned out not to be the winner.

 

I remember Dirk scoring and the celebrations and the camera then panned straight to Kenny who was looking to the supporters with tears in his eyes.  Some people may not think that cup triumph was important but it meant a hell of a lot to me, demonstrated by two special people who love this club

Yep. How it felt for me anyway. I was a kid again for 18 months. Glad he's back again

That FA Cup will remain one of my biggest ever if onlys, even though they would still have sacked Kenny.

 

Would have reflected much more fairly on the job he did and the incredible figure he is for being able to step back in and do it, especially the more time passes.

Absolutely loved Dirk. That Manc winner was my favourite Derek moment.

 

Scored some massive goals and made the most of his ability, every second he was on the pitch. If only more had his application and work rate when playing for us.

 

There were certain games he shouldn't have started in and I'm sure he often frustrated us all in them. However, it's not his fault he was often being asked to be a square peg, in a round hole.

 

Viva Derek.
