Interpolic Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Bellamy was a massive influence on the field with his mouth. Him being a mouthy cunt was a good thing. It was and it wasn't, I think you're right in the sense that (unfortunately) teams benefit from having moaners on the pitch looking to influence the referee but there were certain times when he would get too wound up and it would affect his game. Seemed to calm down a bit in his later years. Loved him as a player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Bellamy got sent off vs Inter didn't he when Matterazi (or possibly Cannavaro) wound him up, resulting in a 3 game ban? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Bellamy got sent off vs Inter didn't he when Matterazi (or possibly Cannavaro) wound him up, resulting in a 3 game ban? Aye, it was Materazzi. Shearer elbowed Cannavaro in the same game and got a two game ban for that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Bellamy got sent off vs Inter didn't he when Matterazi (or possibly Cannavaro) wound him up, resulting in a 3 game ban? Yep, at a corner about 3 minutes into the game. Got dicked 4-1 as a result. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Seem to remember Bellamy's 'raised hand' was totally innocuous. Just flapped his hand out as if to say "get away" and brushed the guy's stomach. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

buzza Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 If I were a manager, i couldn't ask for more from than what he is giving. He looks quite an average player but he really is a "safe" (for want of a better word) outlet at alll times and chips in with a few goals. I couldn't ever blame him for not doing the defensive part of his game, really makes us much more robust... Top pro, keep it going and don't drop him pards, he really is sustaining us... (Could say exactly the same about Sissoko on the right wing) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest palnese Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 He's such a great team player, doing everything he's asked. You can clearly tell that he's no winger, but that work-rate really is priceless. Incredible upgrade on Jonas. Undroppable atm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 You can tell he's a natural striker. He gets into some great positions in the box. It's because of this he could've easily added another couple easy goals to his tally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I get the impression that he'll burn out after Christmas, but he's been brilliant up until now. The graft he puts in is always going to get him praise, but the way that he uses space, protects the ball and makes the opposition work is very good as well. Anything over 15 this season and he's done an excellent job. That should be his aim, but I think he'll fall just short of that. He's such an easy player to love.

The College Dropout Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 15 from what is a midfield position is overly ambitious IMO. 10-12 would be excellent. Anything less than 8 would be disappointing. Playing one game a week I think he'll be able to keep this up for awhile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest icemanblue Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 15. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
basjen Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 3 in 12 (8 starts) in PL, plus one in the League Cup. 4 in 13, so if he continues his form and stay clear of injuries he could well get around 12, which would be excellent, considering how much he brings defensively as well. Of course 4 in 15, i forgot to count the other two League Cup games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Aim. He has 4 in 15, which works out over the course of the remaining 27+ games as about 9 goals, which would equal 13. 15 is a good number to AIM for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Anything around 10 would be excellent considering our lack of goals from midfield in recent seasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Still hate this idea he is a squad player. He's normally one of our best players and very rarely has a bad game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 He was a squad player, he's now a surefire starter. That is how you build squads buy players to improve your depth but have the ability to get into the first team and not people who are just there to make up the numbers. Love the way he plays and hope he keeps it up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
