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.

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.
