Liverpool forward Dirk Kuyt has hailed the performances this season of team-mate Yossi Benayoun, and feels that the work rate and commitment shown by the Israeli will prove a key factor over the course of this campaign.
Benayoun also possesses a keen footballing brain and superb skill, according to the Dutch international.
"Yossi is an intelligent player with lots of quality," Kuyt told the Reds' official website.
"His biggest quality is to beat players. The way he passes them sometimes is unbelievable. He's got great skill and can do something for us in games to change things.
"Yossi can beat players and score goals. A lot of people will look at him and notice these qualities but he is also a team player. He puts everything into the team effort and also works really hard.
"That is really important. He's not only a skilful player but also works unbelievably hard for the team.
"For the last couple of months of last season he was really important for us, scoring goals and playing well as we challenged for the title. This season he has carried that on and is playing very well again."
