Reds hit-man Dirk Kuyt is looking to continue his impressive start in the Premiership to keep his critics quiet.
“I know people in Holland were doubting I could play here when I joined, but I just intend to give 100 percent every time and I believe I can play at this level,” said Kuyt.
“I did well in Holland, although I accept the pace is much greater in England and the Premier League is a higher level.
“But I knew what to expect. I watched the Premier League on television in Holland for many years before I came here. I knew how fast it all was and that it was one of the world’s best competitions.
“I wanted it so much and now I am here and scoring goals. Now I just want to show what I’ve got.”
He added: “I have settled well, it’s getting better and better on and off the field,”
“I love playing at Anfield and I like the city and the people.
“We can still produce more, not only me. I have played three matches on the trot with Peter and that partnership is getting better. It was the same with Craig Bellamy. We were improving together so there are now two partnerships we can use knowing they work well.
“I can work with both players. Things are improving although I know there is still a big gap between us and the top sides.
“But if we can win at Arsenal next week then things will start to change for us.
“That will be the big test after four home wins and the bad start we have made in our away games.”
