exactly, the new owners would never sanction more than that.

Bellamy is alright as a stop gap I guess... But we soon need a striker who can match the talents of Suarez and partner him.. Someone better than Carroll and Kuyt...

Dunno why you say that. Suarez is in a league of his own. One of those exceptional talents. Heck, if we get someone as good as Suarez, great! Not going to happen though!

well if Judas didn't decide to become Judas, we would have had Suarez and Torres pairing. I was talking about that kind of calibre pairing... like Kenny and Rush...

Aye. I get ya. That sure would be something. God I hate Torres

There's no way the club is paying him 80 thou a week at 32, must be some mistake. He was supposedly on 90 at Citech. Wouldnt pay him a penny more than 40.

reports suggested a 50% pay cut

City reached agreement on the rest of his contract, so the paycut was worth while having being paide soemthing near 4-5 mill

i just cant help thinking Kenny will regret signing him.

i just cant help thinking Kenny will regret signing him.

if he does then he'll leave in the summer. He's on a 1 year deal that'll active a 1 yearextension if he plays over 25 games this season.

Pretty low risk in my view for a player who cost us nothing

Yes you can

I'm delighted Bellamy's back. I wanted him back last summer and disappointed he was transferred out in the first place. I'm sure he'll make a big contribution to the team this season.

[crim cram]

He looked good for Wales tonight, lively and played the entire pitch.  Looks like he's still got it!

Hes got the "bad boy" tag
As far as Ive seen and heard hes a model professional who loves training and playing
He has a fiery temper. So what?
He has also calmed down in his latter years

[C-R]

look at my username (cardiff-red), went to a few games and watched craig play for cardiff, he was captain and a leader, no trouble from him

hes loves Liverpool, hes a fan from childhood, he knows hes coming to the end of his career and will give 101% for us

this is a very good bit of business for us, he wil make us proud

Not good enough! We want at least 105%!!!

Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard has welcomed Craig Bellamy's return to Anfield and backed the club's decision to sell Raul Meireles.

In a busy day of transfer activity on deadline day Liverpool swooped to bring Bellamy back to the club, while Meireles left for Chelsea.

Gerrard is delighted to have Bellamy back on Merseyside admitting he did not want the Welshman to leave when he departed for West Ham four years ago.

"I'm delighted that Craig is back - I didn't want him to leave in the first place."

Quotes of the week
"I'm delighted that Craig is back - I didn't want him to leave in the first place," Gerrard told the Liverpool Echo.

"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.

Top professional

"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."

Gerrard admitted the club were right to sell Meireles after he handed in a transfer request as he does not want any unhappy players at Anfield.

"It was a bit of a surprise because of the timing," added Gerrard.

Not happy

"I don't think Raul had been too happy because he wanted more game time, but the players who have been playing before him have been doing really well .

"He put in a transfer request and I'm sure Kenny and Damien (Comolli) thought if he's going to be unhappy and doesn't want to be here then it was better to move him on.

"It was probably the right decision and we got good money back for him."

"And that kunt got me sent off at Old Trafford," Gerrard was heard to mutter as he walked away.
