jamie 10 0 Posted August 1, 2012 What''s peoples opinion on Bellamy? Has had a brilliant Olympics and is a class player, I know he''s a bit old but I''ve heard Cardiff are after him and I think he could be they type of prolific striker that would come in handy, he runs the channels and has a decent cross on him and still has pace, good prem experiance as well, would love to see him back in a green and yellow shirt! Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The ambassador 0 Posted August 1, 2012 No, I don''t see him making another transfer in his career. If he did im pretty sure it would be Cardiff any day of the week, he has sentimental value there.Yes he is having a good Olympics, but first of all people forget that tournaments are a bad foundation on getting a player because it''s only 3-6 games isn''t it? He''s too old as well. It would be pretty pointless, he wouldn''t last for long.Oh, and he''s a controversial guy isn''t he. Do we want to risk it?And let''s not talk the bloody wages and transfer fee... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mahogany 0 Posted August 1, 2012 Still a great player but his wages would be crazy high. Also I doubt he''d want to come back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ImDrunky 0 Posted August 1, 2012 He had a good season with Liverpool last season and I think he still has a good few years left. I wouldn''t complain seeing him in a NCFC shirt again, but like people have said, his wages and transfer would be too much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tetteys Jig 830 Posted August 2, 2012 I''d love him here to help us for a year in the premiership. He''s just the sort of dynamic player who could make a difference for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CDMullins 436 Posted August 2, 2012 Id have him all day long,Front 4 of Bellers, Snodgrass, Pikington and Holt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy_Bones 441 Posted August 2, 2012 On a reasonable wage and assuming he could stay fit he''d be an excellent signing.Still offers a lot of pace and good finishing, and is very experienced in the top flight.Problem is that if he leaves Liverpool I can only see him going to Cardiff regardless of our place in the prem...

Canary02 IV 0 Posted August 2, 2012 I wouldn''t take him personally because a) he''d be a pain in the dressing room, and b) his biggest asset is his pace which will start to deteriorate soon at his age.Don''t get me wrong, I have a lot of time for him and his affection for the club, and if we were to bring him back I''d cheer as loud as anyone for him, but given the option, I''d say no.

Niaga Dessip 0 Posted August 2, 2012 I love Bellers, both when he was with us those years ago, and when following his career since then. But, they say don''t go back, and for all the reasons already mentioned I think that is right in this case. But hey! what a great thought!http://services.pinkun.com/forums/pinkun/cs/emoticons/emotion-5.gif Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonzey 0 Posted August 3, 2012 There has been a few threads in the past about Bellamy and whether he could do a job for us. My answer is always along the lines of: No, he''s a horrible little $?!t. Then there are his wages, and the fee which are at least two levels above what we currently pay. And we have a transfer policy to sign players of a certain age range, Bellamy is at least eight years higher than the average. Did I mention he''s a little $?!t? In fact I''d rather we signed Barton before Bellamy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scrappy33 0 Posted August 3, 2012 I''d have him here, love the way he cuts into the box from out wide, will still cause defence''s problems in this league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Splendid Rush 2 Posted August 3, 2012 Putting wages and his desire (or lack of it) to play for us again aside, I still wouldn''t want him here.There''s no doubt he still has talent and could do a job, but what is great about our squad is the cohesion and team spirit. Bellamy would be like throwing a grenade amongst what we have here. I know players that have played with him and I''ve seen what he was like when I was working at West Ham''s training ground. He is very unpopular. In fact, even as a 17yr old at Norwich the players locked him in the bus toilet for a whole journey to try and curb his ego.Not for me thanks.

paul moy 235 Posted August 3, 2012 I''d have him back. An exciting player, his work-rate is excellent, players have to foul him to stop him and he''s been putting in some lovely crosses for GB and Holt or Morrison would bury them. We''d definitely stay up with him in the squad IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it''s probably wise to point out team building is more than 1 + 1 = 2. Just because he has talent doesn''t mean he would fit in and do well. I think there''s a reason he has had more clubs than I''ve had hot dinners. Mainly he is a mercenary and un-loyal, but as mentioned above also an abhorrent little a*sehole who has to move on before he''s chased out by the other players! I literally can''t understand why anybody would think he would be a theoretical good signing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
