Interpolic Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Yeah, Coventry signed Bellamy to replace Robbie Keane when he went to Inter and he didn't look much cop at all. Was an apprehensive attitude to the transfer - seemed like an average signing from an average PL side, a bit like Cort had seemed at that time as well.

He started as a centre forward but couldn't hit a cow's arse with a banjo, missed countless one on ones so much so that Gordon Strachan played him out on the left flank for the final 3 quarters of their relegation season.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 I'm sure we were linked with Robert before Zenden, although we did try and buy the latter first. Robert excited me because he was coming from PSG, a French left winger... oooh la la la Ginola. I hadn't seem him play, however. Bellamy's signing was very much a meh signing at the time. Infact that whole summer wasn't that exciting. I still believe the InterToto cup games gave us an advantage going into the campaign though and when we drew with big spending Chelsea on the opening day I thought we could have a good season. And we did, more than good. Two players in Robert and Bellamy totally transformed an average side. Such signings this summer could transform the current team too...

Guest Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 I just remember seeing his stats and that he'd played in that Confederations Cup. Was a tragedy that he didn't get capped ever again and that he didn't make the World Cup squad in 2002 to replace Pires' injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 2004 was when I think he gave up mind. He'd scored about 10 by February and was flying, then Bruno Cheyrou got called up by France instead. Hitting 29 and knowing he wasn't going to those Euros I think he pretty much stopped. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 I've always thought Adrian looked like a decent keeper, whenever I've seen him. Although he was dropped last season for Randolph, wasn't he? As we weren't in the PL, I didn't really take a great deal of notice of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Remember Adrian got sent off for West Ham a few years ago just outside the opposition's box after he'd gone up for a corner. One of the weirdest red cards I've seen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
