derek1872 548 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Torres - 6 games, 2 sub appearances, 2 goals.Carroll - 7 games, 2 sub appearances, 2 goals.WHen you look at last season its a lot worse than that for Torres. He isnt a bad player he cant be. He used to be one of the best players in Europe. I havent a clue whats happened to him Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatPirateHooker 141 Posted November 20, 2011 Author Share Posted November 20, 2011 Torres hasnt been good for 2 year now, but atleast you can slightly justify his price tag knowing that there is the chance he could get back on form.Carroll on the other hand...

AyeReadyStu 70 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Torres has completely lost it, I see him going back to Spain, or maybe to Inter or AC, in the next 2-3 yearsAndy Carroll was just never ever worth £35 million. Liverpool payed £20m over the odds for him imo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thermopylae 15,286 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 At the end of the day the more money you have access to in your game the more you will waste ... at least Torres had a track record Carroll always looks like the big guy in the school team who only gets a game because he's a year older and bigger than the rest Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wearethemighty 186 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 That Lambias guy from NUFC got quoted as saying they told LFC they wanted ALL the fee paid upfront and that Carrol wasnt worth anywhere near that fee. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wearethemighty 186 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 FOOTBALL© PA PhotosMore on Derek Llambias, Andy Carroll, Fernando TorresFull team news for Newcastle United, LiverpoolNewcastle managing director: Andy Carroll not worth £35mBy Pascal Lemesre, ReporterFiled: Sunday, November 13, 2011 at 12:06 UKNewcastle United's managing director Derek Llambias has reportedly been caught on tape in a Tyneside bar making a verbal attack on Andy Carroll. A report in the Sunday Mirror claims Llambias was foul-mouthed towards the England striker and other transfer dealings. He is quoted as saying: "I have to admit that £30m for Andy Carroll is a lot of money." When one supporter asked him "Is he worth £30m?" he reportedly responded: "No - he's worth f*** all." Llambias went on to say that Newcastle knew Liverpool were selling Fernando Torres to Chelsea and because of that, they were dictating the Carroll move. "Mike (Ashley) said - and he is a brave boy Mike I promise you - get all the £35m up front. We got it all up front and then they never paid us on time and we charged them 12 grand f****** interest." Former Toon managers Kevin Keegan and Alan Shearer also came under scrutiny from Llambias. "Kevin Keegan can't take pressure. His f****** head is all over the place," said Llambias. "Mike (Ashley) was selling to the Arabs and they wanted Kevin Keegan. The Arabs wanted him, the fans wanted him - perfect! "Shearer was my choice and I have to hold up my hands - the wrong choice... he gave all the responsibility to [assistant Iain] Dowie. Rubbish!" The Magpies are enjoying an unbeaten start to the season and currently sit third in the Premier League. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
