The coach had some choice words for the experienced duo, who have been at the forefront of Team Great Britain’s attack.
Stuart Pearce’s decision to opt for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Craig-Bellamy-c9471 as the overage players seems to have paid off quite well, as both of them have been instrumental in gaining results for Great Britain.

line-up.
While the Welshman has been prolific, Giggs has been sublime, playing in the free-kick for the first goal against the Senegalese and later adding one of his own against the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/United-Arab-Emirates-c3033.
His positioning and awareness are world-class and his ability to drift past his man at the old age of 38 is reminiscent of Sir Stanley Matthews, and have deservedly handed him the captain’s armband and of course a place in the starting line-up.
Stuart Pearce has also lauded the two for their performances so far and claimed that they had set an example for the rest of the squad.
"With those guys it's the whole package. They get picked for what they can do ability-wise. That's the first port of call when I spoke to these two individuals. From there, I wouldn't say we have been pleasantly surprised. That was the expectation. The professionalism
of both is incredible.”
"Craig is as good a professional on the training pitch that I've worked with or played alongside. Ryan is a similar ilk. They are great role models to the younger players. If they are unsure how to conduct themselves as professionals, recovering from matches,
stretches, doing the rehab to the nth degree,” the tactician said.
Great Britain are on the verge of qualifying for the next round of the Olympics, but face a tough task against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Uruguay-c3035. However the game is at the Millennium Stadium, where Giggs and Bellamy are likely to get a rousing applause due to their Welsh heritage,
something which they surely deserve after playing their hearts out.
