Striker says he won't lose any sleep if he loses on Sunday
Craig Bellamy says he is not driven by medals and will not lose any sleep if Liverpool lose Sunday's Carling Cup final against Cardiff.
The 32-year-old has never won an English trophy during his career, aside from the Community Shield.
His only honour came in the 2005 Scottish Cup with Celtic, but Bellamy insists medals mean nothing to him.
The striker said: "Honestly if I win I win, if I don't, I don't. I won't lose one second of sleep over it.
"I've had a great career and enjoyed it but is it defined by trophies? No - and it never will be.
"I don't even know where my Scottish Cup medal (won in 2005 with Celtic) is.
"I try to win every game I can and I've achieved more than I could have ever set out to.
"I will carry on that same approach and if I win great but if I don't I can walk away knowing I've enjoyed it working as hard as I can and giving my all for the team."
Strange
The match pits Bellamy against his hometown club, who he captained last season, and it is not something he is looking forward to.
"It is a strange situation and something I've really not looked forward to doing to be honest," he added.
"My father is a Cardiff fan, it is the club I used to go to when I was very young.
"I had an ambition in my life and that was to play for them and I was able to do that but it is funny how football works out.
"It is a great final. Football can sometimes be very unpredictable and I didn't really look at this and plan on playing a cup final against Cardiff or with them."
Asked what he would do should he score against the Bluebirds at Wembley he said: "I certainly wouldn't celebrate.
"But I tried not to against Manchester City (in the semi-final) but with the occasion and the moment you can get carried away."
