iverpool should have Dirk Kuyt back fit within four weeks after the forward was told he does not require surgery on his ankle injury. The Dutch international has given under-fire manager Roy Hodgson a timely boost after doctors allayed fears that the 30-year-old would miss a lengthy chunk of the season.Kuyt initially feared he could have faced five months on the sidelines after falling awkwardly during Holland's Euro 2012 qualifier against Sweden a fortnight ago.But the versatile Reds schemer hopes to be available for selection before the busy December schedule.Kuyt said: "I had a second scan and the doctor has now told me that they do not need to operate on my ankle. That is such a relief. "The doctor says I could be back in the Liverpool team within one month.' Kuyt, who injured his shoulder in Holland training earlier this season, added: "I can't wait to play again and help the team. The doctor says this injury needs a bit of rest and good physiotherapy will speed up my comeback on the pitch."
