Guest palnese Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 I wouldn't sell Carroll now as it is impossible to predict any potential replacement at this stage. N'Zogbia developed quite a lot at our place, as did Bellamy, Nobby and others. It's all about the manager and the staff around him, and most of all, the footballer's will and determination to improve. It's hardly easy for any player to develop when you get a new manager every year. I think if Hughton can keep us up, and we get the so-called stability we've been so desperate to achieve for a decade or so, players will improve, wheter they are 18 or 28. I see that as the main reason for our lack of producing first-teamers at the club, because we have always had 15-16-17- years old with bags of potential.

Cronky Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Carroll would actually be a useful addition to the squad of one of the bigger clubs like Chelsea. He wouldn't be a starter, but his power in the air would be a useful option if they were chasing a game and the usual strategy was failing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the alternative is to let a £15m+ player walk out the door and spend a similar amount to replace him. £110,000 pw is a ridiculous amount of money but still a cheaper alternative to Cole going on a Bosman.
