Liverpool favourite Dirk Kuyt believes Roberto Firmino has transformed into the complete player for the Reds owing to his tendency to work for the team’s cause. The Brazil international has notched 25 goals during the ongoing campaign, but despite this, his play has not been one-dimensional with 11 assists along the way.
Speaking on the club’s official website, Kuyt said: “He has his own style and that makes him special. He's a great goalscorer but he's also a team player in everything he does. I don't know him quite well, but if I see him playing he just wants to win with the team and he's not the type of player who wants to score for himself.That, for me, is the biggest thing about Firmino. He's scoring great goals but he's also giving great assists and then you are, in my eyes, a complete player, a great thing for Liverpool.”

Former Liverpool forward Dirk Kuyt has reacted to Liverpool breaking the world transfer record fee for a defender by signing Virgil van Dijk from Southampton for £ 75 million. The Dutchman has broken into the scene over the last couple of seasons after impressing at Celtic. This led to a £ 13 million move to Southampton a couple of years ago. Almost immediately after the exit of Daniel Agger, Liverpool felt a major void at the back and this was complicated by the departure of Martin Skrtel. After conceding too many goals, manager Jurgen Klopp was keen to get his primary summer transfer target – Virgil van Dijk – at any cost.
This prompted Liverpool to agree to a £75 million transfer fee demand from Southampton, who refused to sell the defender for £60 million back in the summer. Even though Virgil van Dijk was not entirely happy in his last six months at the St Mary stadium, Southampton’s perseverance helped them make a huge profit on the player. Virgil van Dijk made an outstanding appearance in the Liverpool shirt after managing to come up with an 84th minute winner against Everton in the Merseyside derby. This was his first appearance for Liverpool and his first game in almost two weeks.
