Arsenal's Wales captain Ramsey happy leading Liverpool firebrand Bellamy

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey says he's comfortable captaining a Wales team with Liverpool's Craig Bellamy involved.

Ramsey appears more comfortable in his role of skipper with each passing game. Even though Bellamy's contribution to a third win on the trot for Wales should not be underestimated, the Arsenal youngster is the key.

"We hope Craig can keep himself fit for the next qualifying campaign," said Ramsey. "He is still a massive player for us.

"Whenever a player moves to a new club they are going to be excited by that.

"I think he has the spark in him again and he showed that today.

"Craig is a great professional. He's always first in and working on things to help him technically and physically.

"There's a new buzz around Wales, too. Everyone can see how promising this team looks. Craig is a great player. He has a lot to offer. He's not shy at biting people's heads off either."
