Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard has said that he’s delighted with Craig Bellamy’s return to Anfield. Speaking to the Liverpool Echo, the England star, who is currently out due to injury, said that he had never wanted Bellamy to leave in the first place ( Bellamy left Liverpool for West Ham in 2007) and added that the player’s pace, determination and hard working attributes would be an asset to Liverpool’s title challenge this season.
Gerrard also defended the sale of Raul Meireles, saying that the club had been left with no other choice following the Portuguese star’s transfer request. He however mentioned that while it was obvious that Meireles did want more game time, he was a bit surprised with the timing of the whole affair.
