Dirk Kuyt's hat-trick

Dirk Kuyt's hat-trick today was total of 7 yds.

That has to be a Liverpool record ? Anyone else score a hat-trick of tap ins for us ?

Fairly sure Jan Molby scored a hat trick of pens once, if you want to count that, but I can't really think of anything else off the top of my head, but I'm delighted for Dirk and they all count!

Ya but thats 12 yds each thats 5 times further !

It might be but I'm not so sure it was 7 yards for all goals. I'm pretty sure his second was almost on the edge of the six yard box.

Might be wrong though.

Yeah second was 5 yards but his first was 0 and third was 2.

MOTD estimated the distance. First one was 0 yards

Yeah second was 5 yards but his first was 0 and third was 2.

The first was just off the line so I'll call it 8 yards just to be different

Yeah second was 5 yards but his first was 0 and third was 2.

sounds like poaching or just well placed .

Robbie Fowler 3 minute Hatrick

Peter Crouch Perfect hatrick.

We love these hatricks.

They are the hat tricks you remember to be fair! Doesn't matter how far out you are as long as you put it in the back of the net THAT is the most important thing and Dirk was in the right place at the right time so many times today. Thank you Dirk you legend!

Could not care less how many yards or not,what counts is the fact that the clinical poacher kuyt was in those positions in the first place to get the goals.

Ya but thats 12 yds each thats 5 times further !

Yeah but you also asked about a hat trick of tap ins and that was the closest I could think of!

But as has been said before MOTD estimated it at 7 yards, and I really couldn't think of another hat trick like that!

Sure Gerrard scored a hatrick of pens pre-season once.

Does it matter how long a distance hat trick he got? A hat trick is a hat trick. 3 tap ins are the same as 3 wonder goals.

Could not care if he knocked all 3 with his left ball sack from half a yard out.

It is a hat trick against United.!

It's not about how he scored them. It's about him being at the right place at the right time - a true trait of a poacher. Have to give him the credit for that

Notice how he was the one who headed the ball towards Skrtel/Suarez and fell, he got up and quickly ran into the 6 yard box.

Easily could have left the ball for the second because Carrick's mistimed jump could have caught him off but he manages to adjust to nod it in!

For his 3rd, well, he's done that too many times!

We have to make a song for Dirk about this, he's one of the most loyal servants, he deserves it!!

I agree.

That's Dirk's specialty(besides his workrate and endurance), his positioning and finishing, being at the right place at the right time to knock the ball in. Obviously he's better played as a striker than a winger. He isn't fast, and he isn't a dribbler.

It doesn't matter how many yards, it's the occasion that matters. Do I wish he could've shepherded in the first one so Suarez could lay claim to one of the greatest solo runs and goal I've ever seen? - yes, but ponder the following fact.

Dirk Kuyt's hattrick is the first ever Liverpool hattrick against United in the premier league era and the only second overall by any team. The first being David Bentley when playing for Blackburn

You have to be at the right place & at the right time. Make me think of IAN RUSH.

Long live the The Batteryman, Energizer. Well done Kuyt (ugly guy). 

  I salute you.

It was far better than that shitty Berbatov hatrick imo.

Keep him up front now.All of a sudden instead of a sulky spaniard we have 3 strikers and Ngog(sorry David).Lineker made his name by scoring goals like that right place right time its a skill in itself.
Hope he plays up front on Thursday but maybe Carrol will start on his own up front.
Great day for Dirk if anyone deserved that he did.

A 7yd hat-trick is surely the shortest ever?!

Dirk Kuyt, the new Sheringham! Hated that b***ard, sh*t player but always in the right place at the right time.

I was hoping we would start Carrol up from and play Dirk where Suarez was today

haha dirk was scum for scoring that first goal. If he had left it that would have been a massive contender for goal of the season. Saying that though if i had the ball rolling on the line against the mancs then id have F***ing ran up and blasted it in the net myself so can't really blame the lad .

Kuyts first reminded me of when Nani stole Ronaldos wonder goal for Portugal only to be ruled offside

I was hoping we would start Carrol up from and play Dirk where Suarez was today

I think Carrol will be introduced gradually maybe get half an hour this game and a bit more next and so on Kenny is cautious with players coming back from injury.Its one of the advantages of having an ex player as a manager.

Seven or seventy-seven yards - it was against the Scum, ergo: F***ing brilliant.

Was a brilliant performance from him yesterday and any hatrick against the scum is tops in my book

Well done Kuyt

Come On Within
Come On Without
You Ain't seen Nothing
Like The Mighty Dirk Kuyt!!

Robbie Fowler 3 minute Hatrick

Could be wrong - but wasn't that a collection of tap-ins?

Hello to all my Red brothers/sisters.My first post on this forum that I have been following for the last 6 months.Could not believe Dirk's amazing hattrick on Sunday...who cares how close/how far he was from the goal line!I've run the poor bugger down the whole season and he replies with 3 against the mancs;brilliant!Anyway,how's this for a go...to the tune of Tears for Fears "Shout".
      Dirk        Kuyt
     Without a doubt
He'll tuck it in,he knows the route
        To your goal
    Like a fox in the box
          Beware!
       Dirk        Kuyt
      We cannot be without
He sank the mancs on his own made us shout
         Our song
You'll Never Walk Alone
          Walk On
I'm defo not John Lennon,and some may not like "our song"in a TfF style,but I thought it had potential.Huyton Red,the "Ain't seen nothing like the Mighty Kuyt" was sung a million times on Sunday.

welcome always,you"re a bit of a william wordsworth,keep up the good work.

Could not care less how many yards or not,what counts is the fact that the clinical poacher kuyt was in those positions in the first place to get the goals.

Spot on, he had the desire to go for every one of them, how many times in recent years have we screamed at players to take a chance and poach. Well done Kuyt, with suarez (euopa cuptied) and Carroll not quite fit, perhaps he can show people he has more to his game (AGAIN)!

robbie fowler 3 minute hat-trick

Excellent stuff Adryan but tap ins they are not.

Wasn't implying it was JD, was just saying we like scoring Hattricks.

I love the way that all the Mancs can come back with is "it was a bunch of tap-ins" They have a short memory...I seem to recall a certain Dutch lad playing for them who was somewhat of an expert of scoring goals in the 6 yard box? So its very Ruud of them to criticise Dirk!  I'm here all week!

what was interesting was it was against man utd and  2 of them assisted by luis saurez and all from very close range. and no offside call. 

It has to be one of the most toughest hat tricks of all time    but still Kuyt should have not scored the first goal. It was Suarez who did all the good work

Get in Dirk! Just been on LFCTV again - LFC's Most Wanted, on until 5pm.

still Kuyt should have not scored the first goal. It was Suarez who did all the good work

Strange thing to say.  Does it matter who scores?

Well done Dirky.  You deserve the applause for the graft you put in and the precious goals you score - of which there have been a fair few.

I wanna see some excellent passages of play particularly between Kuyt and Carroll and I want to see us score some goals! Win this cup boys!

Will forever be a legend in my eyes for the hat trick against the Mancs!

Ah, man, that 3rd goal of gods, when he chipped it up with his left and knocked it in with his right was a bit special - if that was bergkamp, the papers would have been all over it and him.

Suarez is more of a Dalglish than a Rush - hopefully, Carroll can pop a few in, cos Suarez will make chances for people, he's a proper desi thingy.

Forgotten how to spell it, but he's the kind of player I was thinking of - quick, smart, tricky, agile, intelligent, able, and guilefull.

Guile is very important to him, but he'd best learn a couple of new tricks, cos EPL defenders don't often fall for the same trick twice...

Apart from our new boys, I tink Kuyt has done pretty well - he scored a hat trick against manu for 7 yards total. Who cares. Not me. He did it and that's good enough for me.

Cut the guy some slack - he does it for us and for Holland.
