Boss' praise for Kewell
Last updated : 19 December 2004 By Al Campbell
Kewell had a poor start to the season and were it not for the injury crisis earlier in the season he could have found himself out of favour at Anfield. However, over the past month or so Kewell has shown glimpses of the talent everyone knows he has and, more importantly, his work rate has drastically improved, to the delight of Rafael Benitez.
Benitez said: "Kewell has played well the last four to five games and I have a lot of confidence in him. He has trained very well and he has a very good mentality.
"Kewell is a fantastic player who I would call a complete player. He wasn't fit at the start of the season but he is getting better and stronger and that is important for the team."
