Whether I'd rather have £35m or Carroll is a tricky question. But £20m or Tiote? Easy: Tiote every time. There's no way we could replace him for £20m (who could we attract that could do his job as well as he does it?) and we'd break the team by selling him.
Jonas has had his moments, but Tiote has been the main difference between the two sides, imo.
