Gerrard thrilled at Bellamy return

Craig Bellamy

Steven Gerrard has expressed his pleasure with the return of Craig Bellamy to Anfield.

Both Gerrard and Bellamy will be looking to be involved in the first team in September, and the club captain suggested that the Welshman’s character will be a vital boost to the reds campaign.

“I’m delighted that Craig is back – I didn’t want him to leave in the first place.

“That pace and the fiery character he’s got will help us in our push for success this season.

“When he was here before he was popular and one of the hardest working in training. He was always in the gym getting himself in good shape.

“What people need to realise is that Craig is a top professional. He works really hard day in, day out.

“He’s very knowledgeable about the game and I know even though he’s slightly older than me he will still want to learn and do well here.

“I’m sure he will be desperate to play for Kenny. He will have watched Liverpool from the outside like me in recent months and seen a lot of positive things. He will be excited to come back and we’re glad to have him back.”

Craig Bellamy returned to Liverpool on transfer deadline day – being handed a 2 year deal.

  1. I too feel that having Craig greatly improves our options upfront as the boy has pace, can dribble, cross the ball and is aggressive!. He will compliment Carroll, Suaraz and Kuyt equally well because he offers something very different to them all.

    At 32 years he is still relatively young so i am expecting good things from him. David N’gog never impressed me but goodluck to him at Bolton as long as he doesn’t score against us!.
