Andy Carroll will still be a Newcastle United player on Tuesday.

 

Friday however, the deal with Spurs will be finalised.

At this stage, it's about ambition.

 

Do we have the ambition to turn down a sizable wedge for a HOMEGROWN player who crucially DOES NOT WANT TO GO?

 

Or are we essentially a selling club?

 

That's a bit harsh. Every player has a price, if we let Carroll go for upwards of £35m, we're not exactly a 'selling club'

If the homegrown 21-year-old lad wants to stay, and is a huge, huge part of our team now and presumably in the future, to sell him at any price means we're a selling club.  Unfortunate but true.

Makes sense to cancel the press conference if we know that more bids for Carroll are going to come in.  As all the questions in the conference will end up being about Carroll and the manager can't talk about it confidently until we know the outcome.  Doesn't mean he's gone or a fee has been agreed at all IMO.

There's only one chairman in the league who would not think about doing a deal for that kind of money.
