He isn't as gifted with technical tricks like a Bergkamp, Robben or Van Persie, but Kuijt works really, really, really hard and just scores goals (20+ goals in each of the last four seasons in the Netherlands). Add in that he missed only one game in the last 5 seasons (being a meaningless last game of the season) and you'll always play. Do I also need to tell he made 10+ assists in each of his seasons with Feyenoord?

I was very unimpressed with him at the WC, MIJB#19, and though any player can have a run of bad games you can usually see beyond that and he didn't come across as being your typical, quality Dutch striker.
