My main worry is that if we pay this kind of money for him then he'll almost become the first name on the team sheet. Realistically we won't be paying £15m plus for a third choice striker. So who do we drop? Cisse or Ba? I'd rather we stayed clear now and invested that money in other areas of the pitch and got a 3rd choice forward for possibly around half of that fee. How good was Ben Arfa, Cisse and Ba up front together last season? If we get Carroll that is gone and I don't think it should be. We should keep the formation that played so well for us last season and just improve on it in areas such as RB and CB, with some squad players as well.
