KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Carroll buys new house in Liverpool

Well here is what the reports say...

West Ham United striker Andy Carroll is ready to return to parent club Liverpool after buying a new house in the area.

The Sunday Mirror says Carroll has purchased a new house in Southport. And that could sabotage West Ham’s hopes of signing the 24 year-old England ace.

Hammers boss Sam Allardyce wants Carroll to stay after spending this season on loan from Anfield.

But the hitman wants to have another go at establishing himself at the Reds – and boss Brendan Rodgers may need him with Luis Suarez’s future uncertain.

A house in Liverpool is only worth about £3-£4k so it's hardly a big commitment or signal of intent....

In all seriousness though, it's a very weak story. Why would be buy a house in a city where he is unlikely to be returning to? If he didn't even buy a house in Liverpool when he was playing for us, is it likely that he's bought one there even though he's playing in London, and possibly newcastle next season? You'd have to presume that BR has told him his future is most defnitely at anfield.

Perhaps he is our marquee signing for next season. Sell Suarez pocket the cash and don't sell Carroll. Because Carroll,s price has reduced anyway so don't realise the loss.

Win win for Henry's bank balance

Why do you say that Henry will sell our best players and pocket the cash? He's never done that before has he?

He owns Liverpool football club it's cash is his cash. He gets te money out via dividend

And how much has he taken out as dividends so far ?

Does not matter

But I don't know he might be taking some. But it's his asset and his money whether he spends it is irrelevant

But that stands for any potential owners as well. Might as well go to Henry then...

Liverpool hasn't turned a profit, and as far as i'm aware, you can't take a dividend out of a company if you haven't turned a profit (I could be wrong though)

Well that's........sketchy business studies at best.
