Guest Antec Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 We should sell him ASAP. It's not as if he's cruical to us or anything anybody said that or you just love pointless exaggerations? its your attempt at sarcasm that deserves My suggestion was far better than the utter bullshit you've been spouting. Pipe down and leave 'supporting' Newcastle to real fans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtype Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 This is the sort of game that could convince him that he needs to leave. He's blatantly too good for us and the gap between him and the rest of the squad is just embarrassing. Tottenham didn't even have to break a sweat even after going down to 10. Other than Carroll not a single one of our players on the pitch would make it within a mile of their first team squad. You might be able to accept that the "top 4" are on a different playing field to begin with, and Man City to an extent, because they have infinite money, but once you realize just how far away we are from other teams with similar resources... You start wondering why you're wasting the best years of your career here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Not at his best today, which incidentally made us look very unlikely to score. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mowen Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 With Tevez playing games, Ballotelli/Adebayor being a twat I could see City being tempted to have a punt on Carroll so they have at least one professional forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's blatantly too good for us and the gap between him and the rest of the squad is just embarrassing. Well, in terms of form yes, sheer quality... not really, he still isn't better than say, James Beattie was at his pomp.

Zero Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 He wasn't playing well yesterday. Yes he won a few header but he failed to strike the ball cleanly on goal on every occasion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpal78 Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I stand by my earlier comment (even before this game) that we should sell Carroll if two conditions are met 1) we get minimum offer of 30M 2) All 30M are reinvested back to strengthen various positions in the team (RW, strikers, and backup LB) Right now all we have is Carroll which is why all we seem to do is lump the ball to his head and hope that he does something with it, when he has even a slightly off day (like yesterday), our attack becomes completely toothless Anything to say Antec beyond your typical response of ?

buzza Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 If we sold Carrol then you have to hold your hands up and say do i want to be part of this club any more? He's a geordie so you can actually relate to the bloke, he's homegrown talent and he's gonna be a great number 9 in the tradition we have of getting good ones... If Ashley sold him I would become totally disenchanted. Would prefer to get rid of the dross amnd only sign another two players in the mold of tiote or Ben arfa (Dross: Best, Xisco, Smith, Guthrie, Perch, Lovenkrands) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzza Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Would get 5 million for that lot... Two astute buys would do me and bring some of the younger ones to the fore... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley has been trying to cut the wage bill, do you really see him going for this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David28 Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Anyone who honestly thinks and expects that we would invest let's say 30M into new players seems he doesn't know a little detail yet - we've got Mike Ashley as owner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stephen927 Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I'll let someone else do the maths, but compare how much we have spent on transfers, and how much we have recouped from player sales. The net spend must be very low, albeit we haven't had a bid going anywhere near £30m for a player. We could do some damage with £30m in the summer, but theres still a long way to go this season and I don't trust Pardew to spend it right were he given it. January is a terrible market to be spending that much money in, player valuations are even higher than they are in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Remember that £30m will be paid in instalments. The £30m will probably have to cover the wages paid to new signings. And that Ashley pays upfront for transfers. Suddenly £30m will not go very far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
