BELLAMY LATEST

As I said on here last week, Bellamy started training last Friday. Craig has been back in full training yesterday and today and is expected to be in the matchday squad this Saturday against Leeds.

Craig is focused on his football and performing for Cardiff City

Excellent news

Noone on one side Bellers on the other = CARNAGE

id actually prefer tommy smith to start and bellers used as an impact sub

Correct should start with same side as against Wolves

I hope hes on the bench and we start the team as the wolves game

Sounds strange to say...........but, it'll be nice to see him with a city shirt on again and playing.

Hopefully a good team performance, without the need for him to get worked up....but it is Leeds so can see it being a heavy one.

No red card and a win will be cracking.

It`s only in real times of trouble that you find out who your real friends are.
Bellers will get my full support whatever, the man is more important than the footballer.

Tommy Smith has got to start every game, we have been looking for a player like this for years. He has got so much more to his game than Craig. Yes Craig can and will win games with a minute of magic but Tommy will give 100% for 90 minutes. Winning tackles, great distribution and dictating the game. Looks like he can mix it when needed as well. I am convinced this man can win us games that in the past we would have thrown away. Tommy has everything that could/will make him a City legend

I also think Smith could prove to be one of our best signings.....great to have Bellers back and hope his personal problems can be sorted for him & his families sake

Imagine you were a Leeds defender getting run ragged by Noone and mutch as well as Smith, roughed up by helguson - then second half when your half knackered having to watch Bellamy, Velikonja and Mason come on as subs! OUCH!

good to hear bellamy is back and hopefully focused
i reckon he would be ok up front floating about and slotting them into the net
but where ever he plays we all know he will give 100% as he always does

Loads of respect for Bellamy but he needs to fight for his spot. Smith and Noone were great on the wings and deserve to keep their positions.

And Kimbo leading the cheerleaders at half time entertaining the crowd

Aren't you all forgetting a certain Nicky Maynard too!?!?!?

Frightening really

Agree,and good news that Bellers is back

When Craig is fit he is an automatic choice for the matchday squad and in my opinion he will start more games than he does sitting on the bench.

We all understand that Craig cannot play every game because of the situation with his kness so we won't be seeing him start 3 games a week. But for me his role in the team will be as a forward and not as the wide player in a 4-4-2 formation.

For me Craig is one of 5 players vying for a starting role up front with Maynard, Helguson, Mason and Velinkonja being the others. Who starts depends on the team formation with MM having options for 4-4-2, 4-5-1, 4-4-1-1 or 4-3-3.

I expect Craig to feature in any variation except the 4-5-1 where the role upfront is likely to go to one of Helguson, Maynard, Velikonja or even Gestede if we are bollocks deep in injuries.

Craig Bellamy is not my friend, he gets paid very well to play for my football club. When he's doing this, he deserves my support. As a man.....the jury's out.

Well said deano! Any time you wanna have my babies you just let me know! People on ere with there craig bellamy posters on there bedroom walls thinking we should bow down to him and show him total respect and loyalty!!! Fukin bollox! Respect is earned! Bellamy will get my respect when he grows some balls, gets out there and does his job for cardiff city! The job he's payed 30odd grand a week to do!

Delighted to read this.

Told many on here what an unselfish, intelligent footballer TS was but I think many thought I had my QPR head on.

Glad he's winning you guys over.

Real 110% honest pro.

I was sceptical before he signed but having seen him play I'm 100% convinced.

I just don't understand why were we the only interested team.

Very under rated player mate. The kind of player that very easily slips under the radar when surrounded by bigger name players yet his performances are always very consistent. I was sad to see him leave QPR as I thought he had a lot more to offer but luckily for you guys Malky knew all about his attributes & got him on board.

I'd go as far as saying he could turn out to be one of your most, if not the most important signing this season.

Never doubted you mate, too many on here too quick to judge a player before he's even kicked a ball for us

Sounds like R's fans mate

Stan when we was a shambles against Bristol City he was one of only two players to stand out. But i am aghast to how many of our own support who thinks that Bellamy who is in my opinion one of the best players in the Prem will struggle to get in our side He can play regularly and if he can play he should be the first on the team sheet with out a doubt. He was a cut above for team GB and that is a fact.

I agree mate Bells was mustard at the olympics & was clearly the stand out player.

You are very lucky to have him.

He was , so I don't buy the Gary Speed bit , there's far more it (but that's a matter for Bellamy and nothing to do with us) Just as long as he puts shifts in and does he best for Cardiff , that's all I care about
