KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Carroll is out of here

yep don't want that a second time

He's worth more than 6mil. Despite his failings for us last year he's still an English striker and we've seen how that puts a premium on players, rightly or wrongly.

he's not a 35 million player, but he is easily a 15 million player. he has weapons. We would be wise to find a place for him.

yes i agree 15 million considering his age would be reasonable

Demba Ba - £0 - 16 goals/35 games
Papiss Cisse - £8m 13 goals/14 games
Grant Holt - £0.5m 15 goals/35 games
Danny Graham - £3.5m 12 goals/36 games
Nikica Jelavic - £5m 9 goals/13 games
Steven Fletcher - £7m 12 goals/32 games
Yakubu - £5m - 17 goals/30 games

Andy Carroll - £?? 4 goals/35 games

How can you value andy carroll at £15m when he has scored far FAR less than all of the above players??? Get real FFS.

because that's a reasonable price in today's market

Where did I value him at 15mil? Have any of those players been subsequently sold? therefore their initial value is meaningless to your point. Also with the exception of Grant Holt and Danny Graham, who I don't think has played international football and were bought from championship teams, none of them are English.

Andy Carroll -35mil - 11goals/19 games 1int cap/ 1 goal

He was a young Enlgish player who still has bags of potential when we paid 35mil for him. He was certainly overvalued, probably as much as almost twice his value but he is certainly worth more than 6mil

that's the reason he has potential in the right team

All of the above players have been sold at some point - nearly all of them around the same time as AC, hence their inclusion which gives an idea of what you can get for that kind of money. You can claim that anyone has 'potential' - it is no argument for justifying someone's value.

YOU.ARE.WRONG.

nope i am not and i disagree with you

that's the fun of the forum different views mate
