Liverpool’s Dirk Kuyt has given support to strikers Fernando Torres and Robbie Keane both of whom are looking to be amongst the goals but have been frustrated in their endeavour, as the Reds were held to a goalless draw by new-entrants Stoke City at Anfield on Saturday.
Spanish ace Torres has the record of being the most prolific foreign striker in the Premiership debut campaign following his last season’s tally of 24 league goals. However, the 24-year-old is yet to be back to his best so far this term.
Republic of Ireland forward Keane has had a productive career with Tottenham before his summer move to Anfield. The 28-year-old is still looking to score his first goal for Rafa Benitez's side.
Dutch international Kuyt, who started as a target-man, but is now regularly employed in wide right position, however, is confident that the duo will score goals aplenty.
“The goals will come for Fernando and Robbie. Both are trying hard, but Fernando has had an injury and the Euro 2008 finals to recover from. He lasted in them a bit longer than me!” Kuyt is quoted as saying in Liverpool Daily Post.
“I went out in the quarter-finals with Holland, so I have had more rest and a better pre-season. Torres has not had that, but the goals will come again.
“Fernando is fit now. You can see his quality, as you can with Robbie. We have no worries, they will score plenty of goals.”
