OldFart Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 My view on the Bellend would depend first and foremost on whether he is capable of scoring lots of goals (which I sincerely doubt) and whether he can stay out of trouble off the pitch (which is more likely).

sam100 Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 he would cost 7 million max remember they will want rid of him, as they are looking for bigger and better things as they have money to throw around it's not like hes vital to them and it would only take a big bid to prize him away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianrobo1 Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 surely if our stated aim is top 4 within 4 seasons then he is not good enough for us would find buying Bellamy a tough one .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazdavies79 Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Bellamy is an excellent player, but he's also trouble and controversy usually follows him. Tough one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jez Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Rather have Defoe than Bellend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 surely if our stated aim is top 4 within 4 seasons then he is not good enough for us would find buying Bellamy a tough one .... Benitez must have thought he was good enough for his top 4 club last summer. But it appears that Bellamy isn't happy with the squad rotation policy up there. To be honest, he probably isn't good enough to be a regular starter for a top 4 club but we sure as hell ain't gonna attract anyone of that calibre right now. Bellamy would be a good "stepping-stone" player as we try and improve as a club to one day be able to attract the world class players we all crave.

Guest VillaFan1 Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Bellamy is quality whether you like him or not ! I reckon he,d be a good signing for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasthevillan Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 He would definitely score goals for us, we may not like him but if he does the business we would love him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSufferingVilla Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 **** Bellamy, give us Robbie Keane - younger and better, 8 goals in the last 5 games, a natural leader and superbly behaved off the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that Keane has scored 14 in his last 12 doesn't bode well for us getting a good deal on him, the frozen out Defoe on the other hand could be a bargain who may well be available for the right price.

CyberVillan Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Sunday Mirror links us with Bellamy and Boruc again, i think these two are certs to be honest VILLA TARGET CRAIG EXCLUSIVE O'Neill poised to tempt Liverpool with £8m bid for striker Bellamy By Ken Lawrence 29/04/2007 More Football Have your say: Football forum MARTIN O'Neill will splash £12.5million on Craig Bellamy and Artur Boruc this summer as he continues rebuilding at Aston Villa. O'Neill has won the race for Bellamy, who could finish the season with a Champions League medal but will still be sold by Liverpool for £8m. Mark Hughes would love to take him back to Blackburn, having been forced to sell him for £6m last summer due to a clause in his contract allowing him to leave for that figure. Advertisement But Rovers are way behind their Midlands rivals in terms of how much they can offer the Welshman in wages. By moving to Villa Park and working again with the manager who took him on loan from Newcastle to Celtic, Bellamy will keep his current £60,000-a-week salary rather than take a pay cut by returning to Ewood Park. What is more, Bellamy credits O'Neill for revitalising his career after his troubles with Graeme Souness at St James' and is privately delighted at the prospect of playing under him again. O'Neill, meanwhile, will go back to his old club for Boruc, the Polish goalkeeper he has identified as the man to replace Thomas Sorensen next season. He is confident that a £4.5m offer will land the 27-year-old. http://www.sundaymirror.co.uk/sport/football/tm_headline=villa-target-craig--%26method=full%26objectid=18984114%26siteid=98487-name_page.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
