Kuyt hits out at Liverpool boss Dalglish for selection snub

Liverpool attacker Dirk Kuyt has turned on manager Kenny Dalglish.

The Dutch favourite feels he's being squeezed out of Anfield.

Kuyt told The Sun: "Under this manager I don't have the feeling any more that he will put me in the side every week.

"I'm under no illusion about playing every week. But I believe I am still good enough to play for Liverpool every week.

"My physical stats are better than ever before."

Kuyt has been kept on the bench by Dalglish for most of the season and feels it has killed him.

He added: "Last season I was scoring goals all over the place. But this season the manager bought three players who all played in my position.

"In the rotation system he used, I never found my rhythm again and never felt my old self.

"Deep in my heart I'd love to stay at Liverpool so I could have full revenge on everyone in my final season at the club."
