Nah... he was trying to offload Carrol onto Wolves.

Something going on behind the scenes clearly

Read my transfer gossip in the Joe Cole article below. And I thought I was only kidding

hmm

Maybe there was somethin happenin,but now its not likely.

Simple enough.

Its actually scary isnt it!

We have Kuyt, puts in a shift but 1 goal all season

We have Bellamy, class but cant play more than 2 games in a row because of his knees and age.

Then Suarez, obviously our best striker, but more of a SS for me. Although he is a goal scorer, he brings others into the game too!

Carroll, well IMO he wont be leading the line in the near future.

So....... wheres our goals gonna come from?

I share your dream mate!

You get this feeling that this might have cost us our transfer dealings, sadly.

I have a feeling that no money isnt avalible this window, unless we got a good deal for Carroll?

In the summer I would like to think it'll be different??

There is money avaliable.

1manontherun,

Carroll, well IMO he wont be leading the line in the near future.

===================

When Carroll was signed by Liverpool, the Liverpool board received lots of comments & articles posted, whether it be by WUMs or otherwise, saying he was a waste of money. The comebacks were that Liverpool fans were happy with the transfer & he had bags of potential.

I'm not saying he is one way or the other, but is the general feeling creeping in that Liverpool fans are now accepting (rightly or wrongly) that this was a bad decision by KD to bring him in?

Chicken, I'm not entirely sure the transfer activity last January was anything to do with KD, after all, he was only a caretaker manager at that point.

But yes, I think the majority of fans believe that he's not the right player for us, for whatever reasons.

but is the general feeling creeping in that Liverpool fans are now accepting (rightly or wrongly) that this was a bad decision by KD to bring him in?
=========================================
I'm not even accepting that it was a decision by KD.
Comolli identifies transfer targets.

KD certainly will have some input, but I don't know how much it is, or what form it takes, and nor do you.

Bobby / Kemlyn Road,

I was not having a dig. I just wondered whether it was now widely accepted (amongst the Pool fans) that the relationship between Carroll & Liverpool will not work.

Comolli is a nightmare - how he can overrule a football manager is beyond me. Yes, i know he's had his successes, but he has also had some right dogs.

Liverpool should get rid before he does too much damage.

Kenny probably thought we would sign someone, but the deal fell through probably.

So.. yeah that's pretty much it.

Thing is, there weren't too many fans of any team that wasn't bigging up Carroll..... Until he signed for us of course! I don't think anyone thought he would be quite this ineffective...

I don't think anyone thought he would be quite this ineffective...

================

Without digging up old ground, i think the problem was he hadn't really proved himself over a long period of time.

The Prem has seen too many half-season wonders for any to splash out that much cash for someone.

I know it seems Chelsea got knocked for Torres, but who can hand on heart say he hadn't proved himself at this level?

I know the large fee wasn't AC's fault, but thats the way it goes when you do move for big money - you have to live up to it.

I was not having a dig.
==========================================
???? I never said you were.

==========================================
Possibly, but I'm not one of them. Haven't given up on him at all, he's only 22. Played well on Saturday, and I think he's trying hard, but lacking a bit of confidence, and needing todevelop different aspects to his game than he needed to to at Toon.

==========================================

==========================================
Yes, seven of the team with which Spurs beat Inter Milan, including Bale and Modric, both of whom will fetch huge profits if they're sold.

==========================================
but he has also had some right dogs.
==========================================
Who hasn't? ...it's not an exact science, and there's always some luck involved. What he mainly tries to ensure is that there'll be some re-sale value if it does fail.

Playing Wolves on last transfer day was mentioned before, and the reply was that "they don't need the manager etc, to be available as the transactions would be done by admin. i.e. Comolli, Ian Ayre" I'm sure KK knows how to use a mobile and can keep in touch.

I am not in the know at all

But I saw both KK and Mancinis presser earlier today.KK was straight in there b4 even asked the question , no ins or outs,almost too quick with his response

Mancini was different he was asked about Carlos Tevez first not transfers in general,he ducked the question.If Tevez aint goin anywhere just say he isnt going anywhere,but he seemed unsure.Then at the end of the presser he was asked no in or outs then ,and he said yes no ins or outs

Now I could be totally and utterly wrong,Kenny could have said about the transfer thing to get an extra days rest for the lads for Wolves to McCarthy

But somethin aint quite right, the body language of KK and Mancini, I can smell somethins goin on.I have a feelin we may be in for Tevez on loan, I dont what it is , Ive just got that feeling.

You all take the mickey on Wednesday when Im wrong
