    Is anyone else worried about Dirk Kuyt’s goalscoring prowess?

    He’s clearly a good player. Strong, effervescent and intelligent…but is he a clinical finisher? Based on the evidence presented so far, the answer would have to be no. I think many of us thought we were getting a deadly goalscorer.

    It’s too early to make any firm judgements about Kuyt, IMO. He may just be lacking a bit of confidence in front of goal currently, I dunno – I wonder if he ever missed so many chances in Holland? He could have had five on Saturday and there was a time when I feared his spurned opportunities would come back to bite us on the arse.

    Personally I’d go with Crouch & Bellamy for the next couple of games and give Dirky boy a rest. I know I’m in a minority here, but I don’t think there’s anything between Crouch & Kuyt. Yes, Dirk is a little more mobile and has a touch more pace, but Crouch offers us just as much. His instant contribution on Saturday should serve as a reminder that Kuyt should not be guaranteed a place.
    I said in another thread that Crouch should play for the next couple of games, I am trying to think which strikers you could buy that is a natural finisher. There's not that many around.
    I think it's a foul, and if the ref gives it. He got to give a penalty. I know it's outside the box, but you see them given that close to the area. So if the ref gives it he's got to give the penalty as it so close to the area. But I think it's a penalty. Robbie Savage 8/11/06

      There's only two natural finishers in the premiership we have one, the other is out for the season.

        Who is out for the season? The only person I can think of is Kevin Doyle. Are you including Owen as well?

            Is Kevin Doyle out for the season? Didn’t know that. Since when? I think he means Owen.

              FWIW I’d also nominate Dean Ashton as bit of a natural goalscorer.

                          No we were talking about natural finishers. I say Owen and God are the only ones in the league.

                              I'd nominate Solskjaer too, even though I hate myself for it.
