Andy Carroll

[Keith Scantlebury]

If Liverpool want to pay £35m for him the TOON should let him go. Yes they would miss the player, but unless he does some growing up and sort himself out, away from football he will land himself in jail. Only thing is,can NUFC find a replacement in such short time [8 hrs or so] cos if they dont Ashley will trouser the money for himself, then just watch the club go back up for sale , after all, he has just had a £35m kickstart from the sale of a homegrown player, as close to pure profit as you can get.

Well, £35m for a player with half a season Premiership experience Suppose it is good business for NUFC but a helluva risk for Liverpool. I dont think the kid is a one season wonder but you just need to look back at the Andy Cole saga when he was sold to Man Utd. He did ok for them but was never the star player he was at the toon. Carroll needs the right people arround him now to keep him grounded, things may be moving a bit too fast for him and liverpool need to be carefull. If they need help I'm sure Paul Gasgoine would offer some advice. [young player,lots of money,hangers on and front page headlines etc.]

Gutted he's gone but for that sort of money they would be daft to let him go. After all we have got Stephen Ireland

Ireland and barton in the middle with routledge and guttierez on the wings. Nolan supporting either Ranger, Best or Ameobi up front.

Ameobi will have to swap his boots over and start kicking straight. It was announcedin the Journal t'other week that Ranger was committed to scoring goals for the Toon so he just needs to pull his socks up and have a good go. After all he appears to put more effort in that Ameobi but doesn't get a game. Don't think Best has a hat-trick in him every game but we need some commitment from all of the players and leave Perch on the bench and we should be fine.

Agreed..... they should be ok as long as Ameobi is given sevice from midfield and wings cos he his not the best at putting himself about and winning the ball. Pardew has already told Ranger to buckle down or else, the kid has the talent as long as he works at it. BUT , what is going to happen to this £35m?

BUT , what is going to happen to this £35m?

It's going to be used to get Ashley's head above water for him selling the club of course. Well thats what I personally think he's waiting for....hence the lack of funds available so far.

A fraction of that will be available in the summer if we can wait that long. Rumours for Elmander from Bolton would be good but don't think he would appreciate the lack of support from the middle of the park either. We need a full on grafter or a better all round team. Neither of these things are going to come over the next few years let alone overnight so a long hard slog ahead is forecast.

Like I said ealier £35m a good kickstart...... especially when he would have taken £100m for the club at the begining of last season
