WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 to be fair, I've seen a canny few slappas knocking around town looking for someone to ride, and I'd imagine the glasses in Blu Bambu are growing impatient at being used only to hold alcoholic liquids, not smashed over the head of an unsuspecting reveller. His departure has also fucked the local arsonist trade far more than Thatcher fucked the miners too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 The bloke's been lumbering around like an absolute mess for the last year and has become one of the biggest football flops of all time, English football's great comedy figure. Apparently unfit and unmotivated, or atleast completely and utterly out of form. He basically looks like a shit, gutless version of the player we watched in the Championship. Paying £35 million for him looks like the biggest joke in footballing history, going back in and paying big money (even more so relative to what we have) for the shit version of Andy Carroll is even more ridiculous. I'm not at all convinced he'd come back and start playing well again, in fact, I'm almost convinced he wouldn't. Could buy a fucking excellent couple of players for £15 million.

Fenham Mag Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Even if we were willing to spend £15m on a player (makes me laugh just typing it ), as if we'd risk putting all that on a player who has been ridiculously out of form for pretty much the entire last year. A player that our own MD has said off the record is 'worth f*** all'. A player on a reported £80,000 per week. Total non-story. Maybe he's got the virgin money up front (sure we've been down this road before) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LooneyToonArmy Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 No way Liverpool would sell him for £15m. can`t see any clubs willing to fork out 15m on him anyway......Stoke perhaps at 10m (?) Anyways, it`s not just the transfer fee....it`s the salary he`s on too. No one will pay the salary he`s on now at Liverfool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I'd take the lad back at some point, but not right now if it's going to eat up all of the transfer budget. Story is just probably that - another spurious one to fill column inches in a quiet start to the windo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I'd have him back, his lifestyle needs a major shake up though I don't know him personally, nor am I an expert on sport & nutrition. However, his form has tailed off since joining Liverpool. At Newcastle the team played to his strengths, there was little expectation placed on him, he was playing week-in-week-out, and the squad was full of confidence. At Liverpool none of those things were true. The question is: if he were to come back would they still be true? With our current style of play I'd say he'd slot in nicely as a target man and give us another option from set pieces. Following his performances at Liverpool I think expectations would be significantly lower, and the team does still seem to be playing with confidence. He also wouldn't be expected to be the main man (as he was first time round) when Ba is back. Also, he's a fan. He'd be playing for the shirt. He'd be worth a punt at the right price. That said, it's all moot. Confident there's nothing in it whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 The notion of us spending £15m on one player is so laughable. Yep! There's no chance in hell we'll sign anyone for that amount of money, let alone Carroll. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 mates with a Wolves fan on me course. He hates Berra, says he's utter shite, although he hates most of the team. Stearman usually bears the brunt of the abuse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 £15m is stupid money for him, we could get 2 better strikers from the continent for that. Not to mention we'd be spending the Carroll money to replace Carroll with Carroll. Hope this doesn't happen, the silly scousers made their bed, let them lie in it.
