I really like the lad, but he might have a hard time fitting into Rodgers' tiki-taka style of play, which I'm quite excited about, feels like now the club is moving forward.

I don't think we will play tiki taka. I think we will play like Swansea did.

I never expected tiki taka under Dalglish. I expected more freedom compared to Hodgson. That's what we got in the second half of 2010-11. He let us down somewhat last season, not sure what happened. Confusion of how to play because in my opinion Carroll and Suarez are incompatible.

Look at Suarez for Uruguay. The front three are quick and powerful but also technically brilliant. Carroll and Suarez are too very different players. Suarez doesn't feed from flick ons and knock downs he isn't a poacher. He works best in a front three of quick clever players. With the options of Bellamy, Borini and Cole to play up top with him and hopefully another addition then Suarez will be firing on all cylinders!

But Carroll and Suarez only played together very rarely.

Carroll and Suarez compatibility wasn't even a factor for 80% of the season.

Probably a reason for that. It's one or the other I think. They don't compliment each others play.

Carroll is staying

The only person's opinion that matters is Rodgers.

He is the manager, our new manager, and I will support whatever decision he takes.

Before everyone builds themselves up to berate Rodgers for a decision on a player, why don't we see how the team do first?

Sure if we are 7th at Xmas struggling for goals and Carroll has scored a ton for whoever he ends up with, Rodgers will deserve whatever criticism comes his way, but that hasn't happened yet, so lets wait and see what happens, with or without Carroll.

If we were to receive a bid of £17m - £20m, then I'd take it. With Kuyt, Maxi and Carroll moving on that would free up around £240k a week and with the £20m we could get a couple more in.

This appears to be a transfer generated by the Press. There's been no official confirmation, either by LFC or Newcastle that a deal is being thrashed out. The Press can speculate till they are blue in the face - Newcastle today have upped their offer. Really? BR will decide when or if AC stays or goes. We are all getting carried away people on the coat tails of the Press. Let's just wait and see eh? jimmyTheRed

Presumably until we get a replacement striker AC is going nowhere. You can't start the season with a new boy like Borini and no back up.

I think that's why we are also being linked with Dempsey!

Why on earth would any club pay 20 million for Carroll? He wasn't worth 20 million when Liverpool bought him, so he's definitely not worth in now.

JIM.

It's not generated by the press. It's generated by the fact BR doesn't want him and Newcastle do.
