Noway its 35 million.

Only reason for it to be undisclosed is because it wasn't 35m surely.. good stuff.

Cristiano Ronaldo cost Real Madrid £80 million when joining from Manchester United in 2009, while only Zlatan Ibrahimovic (£60.7 million), Kaka (£56 million), Zinedine Zidane (£45.6 million), Luis Figo (£37 million) and Hernan Crespo (£35.5 million) have cost more than Carroll's reported price.

If he signs what's the problem?

We have said the club lacks investment in players, we pay good money for Suarez, okay if Carroll signs I completely agree it's an inflated price but that's the market.

Petrol is expensive but if we don't buy it we can't drive anywhere.

This guy is young, scores goals, works hard, brings others into the game, is good in the air and will be an England regular soon.

The only player worth those prices was ZZ!

The problem is this means Torres is going to Chelsea and that is a bad deal however way i look at it.

realistically though when is carroll fit?

this smells like aqualani to me, we need someone to come in and hit the ground running and no way can suarez play alone in the prem.

All done!!! Fecking pathetic sums wasted!

I don't like the fact he could be going to Chelsea, but he doesn't want to play for us anymore.

Supposedly he was going to be ready for this Newcastle's match on the weekend and was training today, I don't believe the surgery on knee stuff but not sure really.

Is suarez even a done deal? could we only end up with carroll?

why?? He's got great talent but is he the best in the world, not even close in my opinion, his distribution is terrible and he is extremely hit and miss.

Carroll and Suarez in Torres out (now even more likely). satisfied? better get out the duct tape and write Carroll over my number nine jersey.
