Thats the way I see it too...

I've no evidence to back up my theory and I've not heard any rumour either but I've a sneaking suspicion Dalglish may not have been in favour of signing Carroll, either wholly or in part. I wonder if the transfer was pushed through as a sop for selling Torres? I'd rather have waited until the summer to spend the Torres money, especially as Carroll was absent for virtually the rest of last season.

Having said that, I hope he comes good and scores a truck-load of goals for us. But he ain't gonna do that from the bench!!

Boring flamers trying to whip up a bit of stick on forum!
I would say... rather than comparing our new players to man uniteds players why not compare them to the old

Poulson vs Adam I'd take adam - still don't like him much but better

Downing vs Babbel well we never had a winger! Even if he plays rubbish, the fact we have a winger stretches opposition defences

Bellamy against Ngog

Joe cole engima

Enrique vs kuntchesky

Coates vs Kyriagos (same pace least coates has got some mileage)

For me the only signing which could have potentially taken us backwards is Carrol and we won't know for a season or too yet he is only just getting up to speed- and there torres left lfc in the lurch- I am not too fussed about him not playing in a manchester united match at anfield, I would want him playing at old trafford however

The fact is lionel messi didnt want to come to anfield (deal with it - as that is the flamer(s) viewpoint that all lfc fans (or users of this forumm) are deluded and cannot face reality

anyway i wasted more of my life conversing with reclaimtheclub -!

Have you ever considered a career in the metropolitan police force?

There's a good chance Dalglish was the ONLY one who wanted Carroll. I'm not even sure if Carroll was that keen on coming and leaving his boyhood club and friends.

We weren't going to get top 4 when Carroll was signed, he was also injured for quite some time so he was unlikely to have a great impact on the league or the europa. So rushing into buying Carroll at that time really only had one benefit. That the team's form might improve slightly in the league and therefore Kenny might keep the job. Kenny is really the only one who stood to benefit, so make of that what you will.


Point taken, Rafa. And I agree, I'm don't think Carroll was keen to sign. I think it was more the case of Newcastle wanting all that money and who could blame them?

the united game ok liverpoool probably deserved to sneak it , but for most of the game it wasnt good and not much in it , but as i said earlier take suareaz,gerrard,carragher and say lucas or adam out of liverpool team and play united liverpool would most probably get beat , united never started with rooney,vidic,nani or hernandez and liverpool couldnt win ok last 10 mins two good saves from de gea its was stalemate , now questions over carroll must be asked never mind a\ll this the fee doesnt mean nothing well sorry kenny it does liverpool have a £35 million centre forward a full england international who scored in his last game and dalglish didnt think he was good enough to get liverpool a goal , as for the other signings enrique looks a decent player adam is ok coatez well jury is out not played enough to judge , henderson and downing have been ordinary to be kind to them , i see some poster saying it was poulson or adam well yes adam but adam or meireles not to sure about that plus is downing any better or worse than albert reira ?
