KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Should we give Carroll another go?

what tiki taka and huge valley like holes in the defence..oh no.

I'd give andy a second shot we are not exactly bursting at the seams with players and tbh we won't replace him for someone better with the money we will get for him

Tika taka wiki waka...wtf...since when did it become tiki taka and cease being pass and move? You know, pass and move, the liverpool groove...

Since BR arrived isn't it? Never heard it at LFC before that

Swap Carroll for Diame. No power in our mid at all.

Simply put, Carroll needs regular football to have any sort of form. He will never get this with us. He will never have form as a plan B. We best sell and move on.
Remember he has only just started to play well over the last 8 or so games. We best use this to raise his price.

I believe he is on £4million a season, and his book value will be in the region of £12 million.

Liverpool have always had pass and move. Tika taki or whatever you call it is just a load of 5 yard passes that you play around the centre of the pitch without getting anywhere. We tried it and with certain players it works well but as Barcelona have discovered a side that parks the bus at the highest level can frustrate it quite easily. The Stokes Evertons and West Broms of this world are not threatened by it. It makes it easier to park the bus.

Teams like Spurs and Man City struggle against it as they are not great when they don't have the ball. Their players like having the ball but not so clever at getting it back

Andy Carroll back? Yes most definitely. He is a handful and is way better than Borini. We need different tactics especially at the start of the season without Suarez. We need a physical presence to take the onus off other players.

i agree now i think ..i think stevie G liked him there too. plus minus skrtel i doubt we have scored a header from a set piece in a long long time.

I would definately bring back Carroll and sell Suarez and Borini, I would use the money to bring in Remy and Michu as a partnership if they would come to us, I would bring in Williams maybe from Swansea as centre half and raid Newcastle for Cabaye and Ben Arfa and also bring in Callum McManaman from Wigan I think he's got a really bright future if he carries on improving especialy with that never giving up, winning mentality he has. I honestly think if we could bring those in we could overtake Everton next season given there uncertainty with a new manager and in a couple of years challenge Spurs for fifth best team in the country, I think we could also stay and keep a bit of a gap ahead of West Brom and Fulham.

I think if we did all that we would almost become Everton. No thanks.
