Mole_Toonfan Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Bring Carroll back. Shouldn't have sold him in the first place Aye we should have rejected 35m and stayed a mid-table team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alijmitchell Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I have a feeling that if we are prepared to spend that amount of cash on him, then Pardew will see him as a first teamer rather than a bench warmer. I'd be inclined to think that it might mean that Ba is either moved on (which is why the Ba - Liverpool thing might have credence), or that he will be back-up. All this noise Pardew has played about 442, the lack of understanding of Ba and Cisse, the inability of our front 2 to hold things up. I think it makes sense that they would see AC as part of a starting front two. That is if this 16m rumour is true of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Whether he's alright or not. 16 million for a player that may not start for us is pricey. I don't neccessarily want him forcing either of Ba or Cisse out of the team; who are far and away much more accomplished players. The way some people on here go on you'd think Ba and Cisse were George Weah and Romario and Carroll was Micheal Ricketts. If he comes back and rediscovers his form he'll be first choice striker. Not necessarily because he's better than Ba or Cisse, though he might be, but because he'll give us something that Pardew clearly wants in the team, namely a physical presence up front. Ba and Cisse as a duo hasn't looked good at all so far. They'll probably improve, but they're not a great natural fit by any means. Think both of them would compliment Carroll pretty well though.

madras Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 not too keen on carroll (admittedly more for squad harmony than his on pitch talent) but people want us to have a squad where players can come in and out of the starting XI without any drop in quality and hopefully offering something a little different, this is it. we wouldn't have a first XI as such.

Jack Flash Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Carroll was Micheal Ricketts. A player who did really well for half a season in the Premier League then did very little after? You crazy, man! You crazy! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtype Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I'm pretty confident Carroll would do well if he comes back here, and the board wouldn't be trying to buy him unless they were as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 At least it will apease the fluid 4-3-3 fans. Carroll is wicked at that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiquidAK Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Would still love us to go for Guidetti instead. Not sure why the link went cold, but he's still at Man City so presumably is still looking to leave. Would be able to play upfront and on the left of a 4-3-3.

ATB Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 +£15m for Carroll ffs. And we can´t squeeze out a few quid for Debuchy and a CB. What the hell are the thinking with?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Broon Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I'm pretty confident Carroll would do well if he comes back here, and the board wouldn't be trying to buy him unless they were as well. Carroll tends to do well in big games for Liverpool; games that he's fired up for. I think the fundamental issue with Carroll's Liverpool career has been that he doesn't really give a shit about the club and so can't get fired up for anything bit the big games. At Newcastle he was up for every match and he was fucking unplayable most of the time. A lot of people here clearly have short memories... they need to watch back the Villa, Sunderland, Liverpool matches, even that opening match of the season against Man U! I'd love to see him back and playing for a club he loves with fire in his belly! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvellous performance on that day. The foundation of the scoreline. The irony was in the build up, the mackems were all playing Carroll down saying he was shite and how Darren Bent would show him up. Carroll proceeded to dominate them from the first whistle, setting up at least two of the goals and getting the clown sent off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
