Guest Shaun Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Suarez is better than Carroll, ergo Carroll's price should be lower than £23m. The only reason we'll get close to £40m for him is because he's English. Torres will be going for that amount, man! It's an insane price for someone like Carroll. says who?

Flip Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 The thing with Carroll is that he's young and can develop so much, but he can also just stall in his development and be a one season wonder. But I'd rather take our chances on him and hope he develops into that quality striker than let him go and see him develop into that player at another club. If he's only a one season wonder, than bad luck, but we know his potential it's just up to him to perform at that level for as long as he can and at the club he has always supported.

dinotheprehistoricgeordie Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 As Felipao said Carroll is young and is going to get better. Keeping in mind that he is a target man, and as such won't depend on pace he will likely be able to play at a very high level well into his 30's. I wouldn't let go for anything under £40 million. He might not be worth that to some people but I think he's only going to get better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incognito Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 If the papers are to be believed,ahem,Taggart is willing to buy "vanishing boy"Henderson for 20 mill in the summer. AC should be worth at least double what he's worth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Parka Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Name 1 other player in the world who is as good as he is in the air, who is about his age. I can't think of anyone with his potential. He is unstoppable in the air, simple as that! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonsays Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 The reason he is so valuable to us is not just that he has the potential to be very good, but that he actually wants to stay at Newcastle. Having a player with a scrap of loyalty is very rare these days (Darren Bent). While I agree that Suarez is a very good player there is no gaurantee he will settle in England or adapt to the English style of play meaning he is much more of a gamble than Carrol would be fo an English club - it is this together with ability that determines the value of a player.

AlanSkÃrare Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 We won't get a better striker for the money we get, regardless of the amount. Finding people who score goals with some sort of consistency in the Premiership is extremley hard. To me he is invaluable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ridzuan Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 The only reason why I think Carroll would leave the club is because Ashley wants him to. Im sure if you asked Carroll, he has no interest whatsoever of moving to another club. Bu 23M is very tempting, again we have to see whether it is worth it. I certainly dont think so. We are having trouble attracting new players to come here, 23M wont make any difference. But if they offer Bale plus 10M, then I would seriously consider it.
