Cajun Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Can't believe that in January it'll be 3 years since we sold him - time has flown by. 50 million on transfer fees and 18 goals in all that time, what a waste man. + probably getting on for £15m in wages [/Ashley] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I give him a lot of s***, but Ian Ayre really pulled a worldie here in selling him for 16M. He cost -£19m...or -£4m because you got +£50m for Torres or some s*** like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Wonder what things would've been like for him and for us had he not left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotus Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Never ceases to amaze me how Scousers try and distort fairly simple reasoning and rationale to present the whole Carroll affair as a great deal for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Scotty where you born in 1966? The England strikers I grew up with are Lineker, Shearer, Sheringham, Owen & Rooney. I don't see the parallels with Carroll and Lambert if there's none with Sturridge and co. apart from one thing... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Haris Vuckic Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I actually do have a hint of sympathy for Carroll like. His lifestyle though has to be a contributing factor so in a way he's brought this onto himself...[/brutality] If you think of some of the things he's been in bother for and the money he's on your sympathy will rapidly evaporate. Like when you express sympathy for Pardew for getting paid almost a million quid a year to play 3 defensive midfielders at home (and still lose 6-0)? Can you point to me where this happened? Cheers. Now wind your neck in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see the parallels with Carroll and Lambert if there's none with Sturridge and co. apart from one thing... I'd just like to see us with a different form of striker for a while.Doesn't mean we have to play 4-4-2 or long ball. We've never had a Carroll type CF. Shearer is similar is some respects (ability in the air,strength),Heskey was....well Heskey. Crouch just fouls everyone,can't think of any others although i'm probably missing someone obvious. Maybe I've caught the Lambert train too early but him and Carroll up front would be better (imo) than Sturridge and Welbeck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You put competing physically above competing technically. That sentence there just epitomises it. You do need players to compete, but the better ones use their movement and passing to avoid geting into physical wars and run rings round the old fashioned Stoke type teams these days.
