Carroll is a decent player, no doubt, a good addition, an England regular of the future.
But at 35mill there is a voice sayin if we held on till end of season, and Newcastle hadn't us by the balls, we might have got him, or even someone else, at a better deal. He's havin a tough time with injury, got some mad tendon thing that he's seeing a specialist in Sweden for. So he can't play anyway, and could be out for quite a while.
Still, deffo don't think it's a risk like the Aguaman deal though, he has played in the PL and has shown he can do it. I've been impressed when I've seen him. So if he can get himself back fit, in a team with SG and Raul and Suarez, he could really prove a rock for us up front.
Anyway, whatever about the deal, the transfer, the price tag - fuckit - Andy, you're coming to a fantastic club, we're behind you and wish you all the best.
WELCOME ANDY SON!!!!!!!!!
