Rodgers wants Bellamy stay

Brendan Rodgers today insisted Craig Bellamy has a big role to play in his new Liverpool era.

 

The Reds’ new manager held talks with the striker earlier this week to discuss his plans for the 2012-13 season and is adamant he has plenty to offer the Reds.

 

“I had a really positive chat with Craig on Monday,” Rodgers said.

 

“It was good to meet him and get his side of the Liverpool story. He’s a big supporter of this club – he loves the club.

 

“He’s a good guy. He has a real passion for Liverpool Football Club and that’s the type of people I want here.

 

“I like his intensity, his work-rate and his passion so I would love him to be here.

 

“He’s a player. It would take a really special and unique opportunity for Craig to walk out of Liverpool and for us to go our separate ways.

 

“If anything changes on that from a personal perspective then him and I will talk about that.”
