Liverpool striker Dirk Kuyt insists he is happy to play anywhere for Holland.

Kuyt scored the final goal in the 2-0 victory against Denmark in their opening match and was thrilled to be praised for his display by Dutch legend Johan Cruyff.

Kuyt said: "It a tremendous compliment and something of great significance to me as Johan Cruyff is Holland's best ever player.

"I just did my best and will continue to do so. First of all I fulfilled my task on the right side then as a central striker.

"This is a wonderful team with fantastic players, so that makes it easy for me. I will play where the coach needs me.

"It does not matter, I just want to start every game. The team is most important, not the individual."
