We clearly paid through the nose for Carroll, due to a combination of Torres' late bombshell, and the cunning of Mike Ashley who squeezed every drop from the transaction.
That said, we have gained a superb opportunistic young striker, with a physical presence second to none and one who is a great header of the ball which has been lacking up front at the club for decades. He's in the prime of his life and always hungry in the goalmouth.
Hooked up with the nippy Suarez we have untold pleasures ahead lads, and this might well be a strike force generations look back on with awe.
I look forward to watching them both tomorrow....
Hopefully you lucky buggers that make it to Anfield will make enough noise so that those of us watching across the world are well represented!
