Andy Carroll - Best Striker in the World

[MrMichael]

Liverpool and West Ham have agreed a fee for striker Andy Carroll but the player has yet to decide if he wants to join the London club permanently.

Negotiations have taken place in the past week with West Ham now willing to match Liverpool's asking price - the fee is likely to be in the region of £15m.

It is understood Newcastle's interest in their former striker has cooled for now, but Carroll has still to make up his mind about whether to make his loan move permanent ahead of World Cup year.

Made up with that price


Fat Sam, **** Yeah!
Comin' again to save the mother****in' day, Yeah

Fat Sam, **** Yeah!

£15m is the only way

15 million ?? ****ing hell, personally I think he's worth half that, great bit of business if true.

I thought our attacking play was, very little in terms of creative play bar get it wide and cross it in or have Suarez try and create something by himself. We barely get in behind a team or had players free in the box. I do agree about Maxi though.

The thing about Maxi - one of our better players last season - is that Dalglish had to justify the scandalous 20 million quid he paid for the shockingly bad Downing. So Downing was a shoo-in week in, week out, no matter how badly he played, whereas The far superior Maxi was lucky to get on the bench most weeks, even if he'd played well and scored in his last game. That was one of the worst aspects of Dalglish's blinkered attitude to quite a few players

Thanks for the memories Andy.

We got a loan fee for Carroll as well didn't we? £1.5million or something like that?

Either way, Carroll has to accept this first. He could reject it and Newcastle could come in with a lower bid, Carroll thus able to force a move.

Surely Newcastle only need to match WHU's £15m bid, we've already accepted that as his value.

[cannotmakeit]

FSG has said they wanted to make 15m on the Torres deal so whatever Newcastle wanted Chelsea had to pay 15m more. So 15m for Carroll in the eyes of the owners means we made 30m

[Shaggy]

Be nice if Newcastle came along and gazumped them with £17m

This could be a marvellous window.

[Cormack74]

Surely the toon are going to do better than £15m?

[Chris]

Very nice price for us that. Good stuff, was worried all summer we'd hear "Liverpool want.....but it's dependent on Andy Carroll being sold to fund it"

[cream]

**** yeah.

Just think what we could get for £15m...

[Shaggy]

The BBC are reporting that Liverpool and West Ham have reached an agreed fee of £15m for Andy Carroll. Personal terms are yet to be reached.

****ing

[Captain Stu]

I would gladly take £10m plus Diame.

I'd take the £10M.

Seriously.

No matter what we think or feel Carroll is "worth" (that being a relative term) I would take pretty much anything to get rid of him, get some money for Brendog to spend on a player we can actually use and get his horrendous wages off the bill too.

I would gladly take £10m plus Diame.
