YES. Why, is he a possibilty? Wasnt he banned for drug use or whatever? Banned indefinitely from Portuguese football after assaulting a steward I think.

Pretty sure our dealing is done. Still think not having another striker might burn us like.

Would Rather sign Michael Ricketts to be fair. England International. I'd love him here

We still need another striker imo. IF we get a stroke of bad luck and Carroll gets injured for the season we're totally fucked.

Looks fucking shit like.

My mate is insisting Zlatan Muslimovic (Nope, me niether) from PAOK is on his way here. He doesn't know that much about football and im assuming someone else has told him but he's adamant it's happening. What a random thing to come out with if it's not true like.

Hope Carlton Cole goes to Liverpool. West Ham would be fucked.

Booing is simply detrimental to the team. It does nothing for confidence or belief, it's not supporting the team. Yes if your team consistently under performs then they deserve to be booed, but booing them over a single game is ridiculous imo.

Hope City fail miserably this season. Spineless cunts

On loan at Malaga. Dont think he even made an appearance for Al Sadd

Wish this was on telly so I could watch it. Sigh.

i wonder if we get first option on him then? I must admit i think we've missed a trick signing him permanently here like, if he has a good season I cant see him coming back next year..

Apparently not. Physio room lies.

Van Damme is injured. They'll have the woeful Elokobi at left back.

Amazing how people can say they wouldn't have Robbie Keane. If Carroll got injured today and ruled out for the season today, we'd be consigned to relegation without another striker. A front trio of: Ben Arfa Keane Carroll Would no doubt not only keep us up, but fire us into mid table. Yes, maybe he's not at the level he was when Liverpool paid 20M for his a few seasons ago but he's not a Micheal Owen, he doesn't rely on pace. He's a poacher, an excellent finisher with great technique who gets himself into good positions. Carroll would learn from him somewhat and he'd score goals. I'd love him here tbh, he's better than what we've got and he's way better than anything we expected in this window.

You have to be his agent.

DELIGHTED

Only just turned 30 tbf. Still a few years left in him yet

Is it not a player/coach deal?

Probably rubbish and probably not worthy of a thread but hey we're signing decent players for the first time in a few year, forgive me for getting carried away a little.

Reports here and there linking us with him. I'd certainly take him. A combination of Carroll and Keane would most certainly score the goals to keep us up. Dare we dream?

I'll answer this on September 1st.

Wont be confirmed until tomorrow imo. Thats if it actually goes through...

NUFC.com seem pretty adamant it's him.

The guy getting out of the taxi is definitely French though.
