Andy Carroll - Best Striker in the World

[Darkon]

I think Carroll and Suarez will be leading the line together, Suarez maybe dropping deep but he can also hang around the box. Then I think we'll see Gerrard, Lucas and Meireles in the middle with Maxi on the left in an advanced role. I feel we have been playing something similar to this, I think Lecter pointed out that Kenny used to play this system.

That is what I'm thinking, would make sense to make that kind of partnership, although we are well suited for the 4-3-3 looking at the broader squad. But all in all it gives us far more options.

He is ****ing massive

[Reece]

So do we have a song for him yet?

Not sure the lyrics work. Sounds more like a song for the Newcastle fans.

Roman Abramovich's preparedness to spend £50m on Fernando Torres has come as a surprise and as a blow to Uefa. The Chelsea owner has been viewed by Uefa mandarins as a key proponent of its financial fair play regulations, which will seek to limit clubs' losses to €45m (£38.7m) over a three-year period that began this season.

Chelsea's chairman, Bruce Buck, has even gone as far as to speak in favour of extending Uefa's rules to a salary cap, yet how the Premier League champions would intend to square the Torres business with the current regulatory environment is unknown. One Uefa insider described the willingness to bid £50m for a single player as "a worrying sign".

Chelsea yesterday released a set of highlights of their 2010 accounts, showing losses had risen from £47.4m in 2009 to £70.9m in the 2009-10 season. This is problematic for Uefa, since Chelsea are not the only club whose finances are in need of repair and there has been a trend across Europe for big-money transfers this January.

With Manchester City having spent £27m last month they would seem to be on course to eclipse Chelsea's £141m record losses for a Premier League club. If that comes to pass, it would almost certainly put them in default of Uefa's rules. Michel Platini will be resolute. He warned three weeks ago that such clubs face being banned from Europe. "It will be time for them to face the music if there is a club that doesn't fall in line," said Uefa's president.

Oh please, please, ban them from Europe that would be fantastic.

[Alex]

Sounds like Newcastle were being cunts.

A few from my friends in the North (East)

Well done Mike Ashley!!!! Not for sale is he, as soon as another 5M gets offered he is for sale and on his way to Liverpool for talks, and Carroll a Geordie boy through and through my bloody arse!!!! And all we have left is Ameobi who has about as much pace as a dead frog...........

Thanks Andy Carroll for waiting till the last day of the transfer window to submit your transfer request, money talks eh!! Well I hope the Liverpool team captain has a spare room to put up our delightful ex no 9 shirt and keep him in check!!

Ashleys best window yet, well done you fat ****.

Another 'new era' pissed down the drain at NUFC

When a girl hits the floor and it's not Collymore, Andy Carroll,
When you're glassed in the face by a Mag with no pace, Andy Carroll
When your cars set on fire, called a nob and a liar, Andy Carroll
When you're either in jail, hitting birds or on bail, Andy Carroll

I'm not all that excited about this signing at the moment.The fact that we have just lost the best striker around along with the way it was done aswell.

I remember I wasn't particularly over ecstatic when we signed Torres when we were being linked with proper proven players like Eto'o,Villa amongst others.

But we all know how he turned out.

It's a huge gamble,not in terms of footballing ability as we all know how talented the guy is,but on a personal level.

If he can knuckle down and concentrate only on football and cut out the playboy lifestyle,he can become one of the all time greats.

Kenny will play a part but theres only so much he can do.This is a very significant signing for Liverpool FC and FSG.

[Drago]

I'm sure it was more like look at the size of that, oh bless

It's not 2006-07 anymore. He's lucky if he's in the top ten now (when he can be arsed)

We've signed the best young striker in the league.

[dizzycat]

Am I write in thinking that he's sidelined for a while.
