Harry Kewell: new signing for Liverpool

October 31st, 2007 | by: Jan |

Liverpool-manager Rafael Benítez is very pleased with the recovery of attacking midfielder Harry Kewell. The Australian player will return in the Reds’ starting line-up against Cardiff City for the League Cup (with Jerrel Floyd Hasselbaink and Glenn Loovens). Kewell convinced Benitez in the match with the Liverpool reserve-players last week. “Harry is confident and fit and wants to play. His training ethos is excellent. I am so happy to have him back.”

“Talking about Harry is talking about speed, smarts, experience, scoring abilities and flexibility. It’s as if you just did a new signing…”

maybe he’s overrated but we don’t know because he’s always injured (more often than robben)

True. He might not be overrated, but he is completely useless.

He is a similar case to Robben…great talent but unfortunately he is injured all the time.

I know, Kewell is an exciting player, once he gets the ball there is always magic in the making. Sad that it doesn’t happen enough…

Hi Olivia, this is not a Eredivisie blog… . Kewell plays with (and competes for a spot with) Kuyt and Babel, I live in Oz and like Harry and the other Socceroos and we have Dutch link through Guus… All is connected .

Are you a regular lurker? Which club do you support?

@Jan Thanks for the clarification, It’s just I can’t stand Benitez and started to get twitchy. I’ve been lurking for about 18 months going back to the days of Mike(was that his name?). I like Vitesse but in England we tend to only get highlights of the usual suspects.

Right, Mike was the original blogger. I think he moved on to do a Man United blog. Vitesse is doing well in Holland, now. Aad de Mos is an underrated coach. Keep droppin’ in, ok?
