Bellamy quote on Colwill

Re: Bellamy quote on Colwill

He doesn’t need a change of position. He just needs to be played in his correct f-ing position. Fed up of manager after manager trying to shoehorn him into the team by playing him out wide.

I don’t think he’s had a fair crack off any of the manages here. He needs to be played in a 10 and told he’s getting the nod for at least 6 games. Starting him for 1 or 2 games, usually out of position, and back on the bench is no good for his development and it’s no good for the club to be wasting his obvious talent.

It’s no coincidence when played in his correct position in the cup games he’s looked an absolute baller. That performance against Southampton was one of the best individual performances from a skill and creativity point of view since the days of Lee Tomlin.

Cardiff City FC had been starved of players who get you off your seat for well over a decade. We’ve got one of our own at the club and we are absolutely wasting him.

Instead people want to concentrate on what he can’t do - managers, fans, pundits. **** off. The same used to be said about Whitts but if either player could run fast and tackle and were great without the ball they would be playing in the top half of the Premier League such is/was their technical ability.

I’d much rather Colwill try things and lose the ball occasionally than someone who just plays the safe option all the time and just
slows play down. Have a look at KDBs opinion on pass completion statistics and he’s the best passer on the world.

Ps : BULUT OUT

Re: Bellamy quote on Colwill

We've certainly had our fair share of that type of player at Cardiff. Colwill, Tomlin, Fowler, Whitts...
I like Colwill, and think he offers something that the side is currently lacking - some spark, a bit of flair, something unexpected. Sadly our manager is very much a 'play it safe' sort of guy, and I reckon he's on the touchline, chewing his finger nails to the quick, every time Rubin sets off on one of his runs.

I disagree, most other teams will have two or three players with “some spark, a bit of flair, something unexpected”, we’ve always had just the one maverick and expected them to be the game changer, I say we’ve only had one such player, but, under Bulut, we’ve often started with none (Wintle at number 10 anyone). There’s a few reasons why home games are not just so unsuccessful, they’re also really boring, but a deliberate under use of the sort of flair and creativity expected from a Championship team playing at home is right up there among the strongest ones.

Re: Bellamy quote on Colwill

100% agree, I’m not interested in what he can’t do, let’s just concentrate on what he’s capable of doing, sadly until we have a manager who is capable of motivating a team to play to win, it’s easy for people to point out the negatives.

Of course Bulut might be bang on the money with his approach, the stats must be wrong
Played 4
Points 1
Goals scored 1
Goals against 10

Boredom factor 101%

Hallelujah. You are both spot on. Will people just stop banging on about what he can’t do. Love Bellamy - always have - and delighted he is the wales manager, but got to admit to being a bit disappointed with that response. Has he been listening to bulut, a man who would rather build a championship team around siopis than the natural abilities of Rubin.
