Considering the current market and trends, as well as Liverpool and Newcastle's situations, Carroll is easily a 15-20m signing. Factor in the January bumper prices, the deadline day bumper, as well as Liverpool's urgency in getting a striker and it's not that ridiculous.

Liverpool way, WAY overpaid, but still. Hernandez was realtively unknown, Vaart was forced out, Ozil was lookig for a move and on his last year if memory serves, and I don't remember the Khedira situation, but I assume there were more factors in place. Let's be fair here, transfer prices are about more than pure talent.

Personally I think Carrol is worth aroudn the 12-15m mark, but I also wouldn't rate Torres above 30m.

Well it is ridiculous considering that he's not proven himself yet. He had a good half-season in the EPL, thats it. What if its his only good season? Even players like Kevin Phillips or Andrew Johnson had 1 or 2 great seasons. He could be one of them. Thats a huge gamble. Could turn out either way.

I'd say he's worth probably 12 millions. Maximum 14.

He's worth 8 million, add 10 million to that because he is english, double that figure because it was late january and Liverpool were desperate and you have the result

Yeah, Khedira's not really all that good. Those were the factors.

Okay player for Bayern... because he'd be next to Schweinsteiger, but not worth what Real paid.

Oh and tits.
dont worry about carrol transfer fee.he is a special player.and on the positive note that transfer is good for english football.i think there wouldnt have been too much debate on that prce had he been a foreigner.u guys got a great owner and people behind the scenes.nino is class surely but he is twenty 27 and injury record is there to see50 m and using them on two magnificent players is shrewd buisiness.chelsea are gonna sell drogba for sure to capture lukaku and maybe also make way for kaka.if that becomes the case they will be in serious problem if they dont bring in replacements for the likes of lamps,terry.so a lot of rebuilding will be needed and by pool would steadier.and im pretty sure about ancelloti leave if roma takeover finalises and show impressive signs.

Saw the whole game, didnt like how Liverpool managed the goal, they looked like a low-class team holding the 0-0. But im happy with the victory cause Liverpool its a club that i really appreciate.

Did I forget something? OH YES! A 1-0 win at Chelsea.

-------------------------

So, Luis Suarez....I didn't think he was worth 24 million, but whatever.....we aren't in debt anymore. I would have probably valued him at 18million max.
The Big Man - Andy Carroll....again, we overspent but this time it simply went against funds coming in from a sale so not too concerned about it. I would have said roughly 25 million max for this guy.

RAUL Meireles - the in-form player right now at Liverpool Football Club! Oh, and TAKE THAT Nady!!!!! TAKE THAT!

Fernandina Teresa - he says he never loved Liverpool. He wasn't bigger than the club and, as much as he hates to admit it, he wasn't happy with that feeling that he was owed more than the other members of the roster. I never loved him either. It was obvious to me, from a fairly stage, that he wasn't going to be sticking around for very long.

Next, he said that the club did not come good on its promises to him(presumably about strengthening the squad when Alosno and Mascherano left)......well, 1) the club stood by him during his numerous injuries and off-field tantrums and 2) the club owes no such explanation to any players as this is not a matter for the players to be dealing with. Everybody was upset when Mandril stole Alonso away and when Mascherano decided to trade a starting sport for the Barcelona bench but a) you can't control these things and b) others have been brought in....Joe Cole, Luis Suarez(to play with him and help him out) and Raul Meireles, so it's not like we've stood around and done nothing.

Next he says he never kissed the badge and only loves Atletico Madrid. But he still chose to leave them......boy, he sounds like such a child!

You know, I expected him to put in a transfer request if had a losing patch in January. But, when we were winning, I did not expect him to do it.

Now, I don';t really know how Andy Carroll and Luiz Suarez are going to fit into the squad together. Suarez will not be happy sitting on the bench(as he did against Chelsea) so he could quickly go down the same route as Fernandina if things don't change. I just don't see how Dalglish is going to change things to the point that both these guys AND Raul Meireles will be on the field at the same time. He might have to try a 4-3-1-2 formation with Meireles as a winger and Gerrard just behind Suarez and Carroll.

1-0 win over Chelsea. Raul Meireles becomes the first Liverpool Red to score at Stamford Bridge since Bruno Cheyrou in 2004, ending a goal-less streak of nearly 10 hours in West London. We need Skrtel to be healthy....that's right, NEED!

And we need to do something that we have found to be very hard to do over the past several years...beat teams that we should beat, in the Premier League. We can't afford losses or draws.....WINS are a MUST against weaker league opposition. This really is the name of the game, for us, over the remaining 4 months of the EPL season.

Man, that's our style! It's unfortunate that it has to be that way but it is. Unlike Arsenal, we can't put together a string of pretty passing that would make even Penelope Cruz look ugly. We just can't do that.......

I know who you're thinking of: Meireles :rofl:

Ok maybe he could be added to these 2(you were referring to Gerrard and Torres) as well, but he's hardly impressed so far. He's been average as the rest.

JUST BRUSH YOUR PRIDE ASIDE AND ADMIT IT.....you were overly critical of him and wrote him off as an inconsequential little nothing! He's proven you WRONG in the most emphatic fashion!

I never doubted his ability. He simply struggled at the beginning and was largely unimpressive.

As I said, I'd add him with Gerrard and Torres.

I think its fair to say miereles had a slow start and was struggling under hodgson. There is newfound confidence about him right now and its shining through. He has the ability no doubt. Now the key is being consistent.
