Move Cisse out on the wing then? Can't see where Carrol would play
We need a squad, more than just a first XI. Not every player, like Cisse, will play every game. Even if Ba stays, I do not see us offering him the contract he wants, so I reckon Ba will be gone within the two years he has left. Other than that we just have Shola.
Carroll is still young, our other strikers are all at least five years older.
If we would offer £10 million plus a £40-50K per week contract to De Jong I do not see why we could not do the same for Carroll. If Liverpool do want rid he will be like an Adabayor on wages too high for anyone to match and probably unwilling to drop to a lower salary.
Appreciate he is a Judas to many, but we brought Beardsley back from Liverpool and that worked out fine for everyone.
I just reckon if he is willing to take a lower salary, and Liverpool are happy to write off a huge loss, we should try and take advantage. There would be opposition aye, but if he was to score a few goals wearing number 8 people will love him again.
Cant see Carroll coming back though.
Comparing Beardsley to Carroll?
