quayside Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Just how good a deal will £35 million prove to be for us? This lad may become one of the best strikers in the world. it doesn't f***ing matter any more does it? it's done man, live with it, no-one has to be happy about it but there's no point in rehashing it everytime he does/doesn't do something for Liverpool Why should we just sweep it under the carpet and forget about it? It's this kind of apathy that will let this regime do whatever they wish at our football club. Ashley owns the club so of course he can do what he likes with it, just as the owners of every other football club can. It's such a bitch that people have control over things they own isn't it? As far as the Carroll deal is concerned who on earth was going to stop that happening? You had 3 billionaire owners all involved in a chain of transactions for tens of £millions and a player with the possibility of earning 2 or 3 £million a year more. If you think anyone could have stopped that deal then you are deluded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStar Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11661_6867249,00.html Carroll expects big signings Andy Carroll believes Liverpool can still attract the biggest names in football and expects the club to invest further this summer. Ha, that'll learn him! Knew we'd get one back on the scousers, I can just picture them now "OMG but the waaagggeeesss, the deebbbbbtt." Must be devastated, black arm bands for the unveiling lols.

As opposed to those who blindly oppose the actions of those who currently own this football club? Regardless of what they do, it's the wrong thing to do. Period. If they launched a foreign aid organisation, I'm sure some would find something negative in it - "We're wasting money that could be used on keeping Enrique".

Nobody Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Really pissed me off when they were singing "one Andy Carroll" after his goal yesterday, when just a week ago they were all slagging him off. Him and the rest of the scousers (bar Nolan and Joey) are cunts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit like how some people see something positive in everything they do, be it getting us relegated or selling our best asset after not even getting half a season of prem football out of him.

JH Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 There's a difference between being "positive" and being realistic, which alot are being. £35m was a mental amount of money, and still is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 £35m is a massive amount of money, no matter how it's spent. Very few clubs in our position could turn down that sort of lump-sum income. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which bemuses me even more when people criticise the club for not spending the money when they haven't even had a chance to not spend the money I'll be the first to stand up and wave my fist in anger if we don't strengthen in the summer.

True. I suppose my 'blind' cynicism of these guys has destroyed any faith that we will have a good summer, in terms of transfers. Hopefully they'll prove us doubters wrong. As Wallace said earlier, hopefully this summer will be the final chance Newcastle fans give them, especially if they sell Enrique. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 If it's such a fantastic sum to have in the bank rather than a player of the same worth, why the fuck did Liverpool buy him? Why do clubs pay that money for anyone if it's always better to have the money. He's worth every penny imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I want the squad to be strengthened as much as anyone, but that's not the criteria I'll use to judge whether £35m for Andy Carroll was too much to turn down. They're two different issues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 We have £35m to buy a striker in a market where a young lad who's played half a season in the prem is worth £35m and Fernando Torres is worth £50m. Could we attract a player of Carroll's potential, who would accept wages in within our structure as Carroll was apparently willing to? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
