Dirk Kuyt v Ian Rush

29 September 2009 13:34
The Dutchman has been an ever-present for Rafa Benitez in European competition, and a brace at the Stadio Artemio Franchi would see him equal Rush's haul of 14 European Cup goals, leaving only Steven Gerrard, currently on 28, ahead of him. Kuyt said: "To have the chance to draw level with someone like Rush is unbelievable. He is one of the biggest names in the history of Liverpool Football Club and it would be a great feeling if I could manage it."
