I'll be sorry to see Bellamy go, I get the feeling he wants to join MH again though.

[ryanmjo]

If they do go, and I'm still hoping Bellers won't, I'll be sad to see them go.

Still, I think we have plenty of talent in our squad to get along without them.

[BlueMoonAwoken]

Im hoping ireland wont go but why wasnt he on the bench?

[carolina-blue]

I think we will , I believe Stevie can recapture the form of the other season with the talent he will have around him , And as For Bellers how could we not miss that fire and passion , we know he wont be fit for every game thats why we have the quality squad we have , He can be properly rested . Madness If Bellamy goes ,

[TonyM]

I'm very pissed off today. With Ireland not in the line up I'm afraid he's off. Barry was shocking again for a long period. I'd much prefer him to be off instead.

Johnson was good for periods, as was SWP, but we know they aren't always great game after game. Bellamy will be a loss on the wing.

I do feel that we would be a better team to keep both Ireland and Bellamy (both of which count in the home grown stakes).

Maybe Jo is a surprise consolation if he's kept. But back to Ireland. I'm livid with Mancini and the club in general. I know people will say I'm mad given all the signings and a decent showing from the players today but I expect more from City. I expect us to make an effort to keep decent young players like Ireland. Fuckin annoyed!!!

Cheerio

so after tonights game i find it hard to believe iether will be here come 31st August,i think it will be a great lose ,keeping a twat like ade (who i've never rated ,even when he played for Monaco )over bellamy who tries harder ,i say fcuk ade back to some frog team (Marseille ,lyon,PSG)
as for stevie he played great a couple of years ago, last season didn't live up to it ,i'd love a spanish side to come in for him as i don't want him to go to a side challenging for europe here

Mancini has never said anything about selling Ireland. There is speculation, but there have been bullshit stories about almost everyone. No point in getting annoyed over what might happen, we'll see when it happens. Some players are going to have to miss out on the 25. Some of them are good players, we don't know that Ireland will be one of them.

[Sister of fu]

Is Wayne Bridge on his way too, not there today or yesterday, any news??

[Feed The Goat]

We didn't seem to miss Ireland last season when he decided not to show up. Bellers did well last season but no way can he play Sunday Thursday Sunday so IMO he doesn't have what we need anymore

Doug H said he picked up a knock yesterday morning

[ashton287]

dont think we will miss ireland or bridge atall. bellers we will miss against shit teams that try and stop you playing.

the team that started tonight should be our first 11 swapping ADE for BALOTELLI though. I'd be confident of beating anyone with that team.

true he did well but bobby has said
QUOTE "the players know that rest & rotation ,and the mentality that goes with that ,will be part of the game this season.WE CANNOT PLAY THE SAME TEAM IN EUROPE ON A THURSDAY NIGHT AND EXPECT THEM TO BE IN PEAK CONDITION AT THE WEEKEND TOO."so as you can see mate even bobby doesn't expect bellamy to play 3 games a week

[Douglas Higginbottom]

I think he had his foot in a protective shoe or something on Friday. Whether he will be one of the 25 though who knows bearing in mind others who can cover Kolarov.

We didn't miss him when our form dropped to the extent that our manager was sacked?

[OKSTATE99]

Remember Bellamy has a Friendly on Wednesday so Berto could just saving his knees for this weekend. And hoping he only plays part of the game on for Wales.

[Beefymcfc]

On the Bellers front, he sat there on the bench for the full game looking like he wanted to play, yet he seemed to be one of the few that was left behind. We know what one of the lads on here said, so maybe it's true?

Oh, and Bellers was the first off the bench and first down the tunnel, without a sniff to the supporters.

I miss Belamy.

[zuricity]

Would it be inappropriate of me to say that I really wouldn't miss Bellamy ? Because, I really wouldn't miss him.

Discuss !
