Kuyt happy to stay wide

Kuyt was converted from a striker to a right sided midfielder by Rafael Benitez last season and he has started this campaign out wide as well. It's something Kuyt is happy to do for the good of the team.

"The most important thing is to contribute to the team and play regularly. It doesn't matter that much if I am playing up front or behind the strikers or on the right," he said.

"I played the last 15 games on the right last season and enjoyed it because we were getting good results and if I stay there and we start winning some trophies I will be happy.

"The most important thing is to be in the team and if Robbie and Fernando are scoring the goals and are the top scorers in the league I will be happy to get the assists. That would be great because for me scoring goals is not the most important thing. It is not always about scoring goals."
