BELLAMY THRILLED WITH DEBUT

Craig got his reds career off to a great start |
Craig Bellamy was thrilled to get his first Liverpool goal in today's 2-0 reds victory over Wrexham.
Speaking after the game in Wrexham, the welshman said:
"I hope that's the first of many goals for me in a Liverpool shirt."
"It was nice to get a goal at the end of what has been an amazing couple of weeks for me."
"I knew I was going to play ten minutes more than many other players at the start of the second half and so I was hoping a chance would come along for me.
"It was amazing to be in the same team as Robbie Fowler and it was nice that he set me up for the goal.
"I know the manager has set me a 15 goal target for this season but I don't think I'll be allowed to count this one.
"Overall I thought it was a good work-out and a good day for Wrexham to have Liverpool at their place. We got through it without injuries as well which is the most important thing."
Bellamy added: "I think we're stepping up training this week and concentrating more on power and speed which is obviously good for me because that's what my game is all about. We've been doing a lot of stamina work so far but we're moving up a gear now.
"Of course we've still got a lot of players to come back who weren't in the squad today. We were missing the international players and one or two with injuries. It's a mouth-watering prospect to think of all the players we have here when everyone is available."
