didn't they have 17 people at the agm

and torres

- Liverpool want (try) to play a quick short passing game on the ground and have absolutely no need for a target man to knock down headers + hold up play. Who's their best crosser? Glen Johnson? It'll be a while before they get anything out of him, if they ever do. gerrard is their best crosser so logically play him on the right in a 442 (won poty on the right) but gerrard doesn't like playing on the right, problems

2 weeks for ireland-ap said at presser

most expensive british player ever (which is fairly ridiculous)

the problem with those saying new deal for carroll should have been given (if any are saying it) is what if a wage rise to 60k plus then summer rolls round, interest from lets say chelsea or man u offering him even more cash, what was to stop him from asking for same again

seems probable to me

carrolls story doesn't add up for me

3-4 weeks out yet, so the injury wasn't a lie

we'll probably never know the full truth, pardews story is plausible and i await carrolls side of the story but the simple fact remains, no one held a gun to his head and forced him to go no one could force him to go

paulfraserecho Paul Fraser Carroll now quoted as saying that Derek Llambias asked him to hand in transfer request and says he felt like he was forced in to it. #nufc

And? Give him a new contract every 3 months man when he wants a pay rise. Cause he wanted a new contract this one time like? Relax man. Should've given him one. 2 months after his last major contract. Not even Man Utd or Chelsea give out contracts every 2-3 months man. What's to say he wanted a new contract 2 months after his last one like? Pardew has said he asked for new contract, see his interview. His deal with us wasn't even that good. If he had gotten this new and improved one, that would prob be the end of it. he had gotten a new improved deal a few months ago, whats supposed to be done just hand out new contracts every few months?

thats a good question tbh

having a quick glance elsewhere on messageboards the common theme is what the fuck are liverpool up to (and earlier when we rejected what the fuck are newcastle thinking bite their fucking hands off you fools) taking a look dispassionately (not easy i know) its utterly mad what they paid

they got the profit bit down well

Who would Ireland replace if Carroll had stayed? i imagine cover for nolan and barton (he's played on the right in the past)

yup these things take time to slip out, probably made closer to 7-8

would have been anyway tbh

it all comes down to the much repeated line at this stage he didn't have to agree to go, there is absolutely nothing ashley and co could have done to force him out when he had a 5 year contract and for someone broken up he looks remarkably cheerful in the lfc pics

wish list position wise, i'll get back on names sooner or later full backs to cover simpson and enrique-peddle raylor and perch young cb to replace sol winger(s) not sure which side, will depend on where hba fits in cms not a priority-ireland maybe if it works out and a spare holding midfielder-young one again strikers-must we need 2 good strikers, one i'd consider is pavulechenko i'd like wickham but doubt we'd get him with everyone keeping an eye on him.

well hope he gets his head on straight and goes out with a point to prove and demonstrates this on the pitch, if he does its one hell of a signing

Even funnier if its the other way round. nah suarez is a biter

parkys only hope is carroll breaking suarez's jaw and getting arrested
