Love him or hate him, and most likely it will be the second emotion you associate with the Man City winger, you can’t fault Craig Bellamy for speaking his mind. The Welshman clearly has his views on the Chelsea skipper and felt that with a camera pointed in his direction and with a leading question addressed before him, that he had no choice but to stick a knife in John Terry and then move it around an already gaping wound.
The thing is, it does make you think whether JT is really generally someone who fellow footballers simply do not like, or whether this is just a figment of Mr. Bellamy’s imagination. I have a sneaky suspicion that the in form attacker is probably not the only person among the footballing fraternity who are not exactly enamoured by the Stamford Bridge centre back, but should that really matter?
Clearly, as Bellamy states in this post match interview, the fact is that on the field of play John Terry is a leader and a damn fine defender and whether he is a complete tosser off the pitch is really neither here not there. After all I am sure we have all had colleagues at our workplace who we have downright loathed but could at the same time acknowledge their ability nonetheless to do their job effectively.
Chelsea and Manchester City met in a match at Stamford Bridge that was in many ways overshadowed by the “handshake” between John Terry and Wayne Bridge but nonetheless a dull game sprung to life late in the first half. The Eastlands left back was to end up on the winning side come the final whistle after a end to end affair in west London.
First Frank Lampard put Chelsea ahead after being put through by an excellent Joe Cole pass but Carlos Tevez soon leveled matters but only after Blues keeper Hilario fluffed the Argentine’s weak effort.
Craig Bellamy put the Eastlands side ahead after Hilario again failed to stop a fairly tame effort. Juliano Belletti then pulled down Carlos Tevez and conceded a penalty and was also given a red card. Tevez tucked away the spot kick and within two minutes Chelsea were down to nine men as Michael Ballack collected his second yellow card for a petulant foul. Frank Lampard scored a consolation penalty in stoppage time.
The win puts Manchester City in pole position for that coveted fourth spot and leaves the title race wide open and gives hope to Arsenal and Manchester United who will be hoping to close the gap on the Premier League leaders.
…Will appear here as soon as we get it, but until we do a quick question.
What would you do if you were in Wayne Bridge’s shoes? Would you happily shake the hand of a former friend who allegedly had an affair with your girlfriend? Would you smear your hands in excrement first or would you simply try to swing a punch when the referee wasn’t looking, after all if he sees you then he will have no choice but to give you a red card.
Everyone’s least favourite publicist and a former multiple WAG give their unwanted verdicts on Man City man’s recent decision to pull out of England campaign.
Stoke City put on a fantastic display to defeat Manchester City at the Britannia Stadium and reach the Quarter Finals of the FA Cup. Two goals in a minute led the tie into extra time when goals from Ryan Shawcross and Tuncay won the game for the Potters.
The Eastlands outfit will be disappointed to have failed to progress in the competition and had Emmanuel Adebayor sent off late on to rub salt in their wounds.
