On a side note we have just sold Downing to West Ham for around £ 5-6M...

I don't think we were ever going to get £20m back for him, sometimes you just cut your loses and move on. I don't see the point in making an issue of this GNP, would you have rather kept him on £80k a week until the end if his contract just to sit on the bench?

Exactly!

These are all sunk costs - talking about Carroll, Adam, Downing et al. The best thing to do is just cut your losses and move on with better players (and/or on lower wages - in FSG's world at least).

I'm yet sitting on the fence regarding Allen and Borini. Henderson might prove to come right after all.

Personally I think Allen and Henderson are already good players. Give them 2-3 more years and they'll be even better (and will be still under 25 years of age). The same goes for Borini. I'm expecting him to step up this year.
