Another major difference in why Bellamy’s second spell at the club could turn out more positive is his experience. I’m not just talking age here – although he’s older and wiser, and with the shape of the current Liverpool squad, at aged 33 with suspect knee problems, he’s not expected to play twice a week. I’m talking of his experience since he left the Reds, especially spending two seasons at Manchester City where he finally fulfilled his immense talents, arguably producing the best form of his career from a variety of attacking positions. If Dalglish can harness any of this experience and talent, and manage his match fitness correctly, then Bellamy’s should prove a canny acquisition by the Scot. It’s certainly a re-signing club captain Steven Gerrard approves of:
“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. I’m sure he will be desperate to play for Kenny.”
They say you should never go back, but throughout his career Bellamy has always liked to fight against the odds.
