Minhosa Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 There's also the Nolan factor to consider too. Wouldn't he be back to his old ways with the babysitter being away? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Bit of a non-starter for me He scored a huge pay rise when he left and there is no way that I can see us coming close to matching what he 'earns' now If Racistpool are desperate to get rid and will pay 50% of his wages then maybe but not remotly likely to happen I think that should be used in the match preview thread title This Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Said it before but for the money it'd cost to bring him back I'd rather just sign a different striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginola Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 There are certainly better options than him for us. Especially as we'd be even more likely to play more long balls with him in the team, rather than keeping the ball on the floor like we should be.

Mick Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Throw Enrique into the deal and I'd take them both for £10 million. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 I was well against his sale and still don't think we've benefitted from it on the pitch, but I'm really not sure I'd want him back. Apart from anything, I'd much rather buy someone who was in any kind of form. It's a load of bollocks anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Wouldn't have him back. We've moved on and so has he. neither of us have, we haven't replaced him and he hasn't settled. That isn't moving on like. Moved on in the sense that I wouldn't put him in our first XI right now and he's a shadow of his former self. He wouldn't play well alongside Ba and he wouldn't play second fiddle. I don't see why Ba couldn't play off Carroll tbh, plus the football isn't any better regardless of what Pardew reckons. He lost his mojo playing for a club he feels fuk all for, it would happen to me as well, he didn't realise what he had here and regrets leaving more and more as every game passes. We could get him back on track, and it's almost certain he'll not be leaving again, he'll know the grass ain't greener. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 I decided that I'd take him back for £7-8m, but remembered there are better strikers we can buy for less. So no, I'd not take him back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Snrub Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Even though I wouldn't advocate paying £20m to get him back, it would be very funny if we did. We'd effectively have charged Liverpool £15m for a year long loan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 It's not going to happen so need point in even discussing it really........however I agree that for what it'd cost to bring him back we'd be better off signing other strikers at a fraction of the price although back at Newcastle I could see him scoring goals. It's been an unmitigated disaster for Liverpool up to this point though and the only thing that is helping the Carroll situation is that there is an even bigger disaster going on with Torres at Chelsea.

Cronky Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 He's not the kind of striker we need. If we've got money to spend, let's try and get in someone with pace and trickery Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sicko2ndbest Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 What is he currently worth? On current showing no more than 5 million! Would stay well clear unless the deal was too good to turn down! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
