This is fairly exciting way to start the day. I hope when I return after lunch some more crazy stuff has happened.

Someone explain this to me.

Andy Carroll has only scored 34 career goals. And he's about to be bought for £35m.

I am hoping for a transfer from way out in left field. Should be interesting.

He's 22, English, homegrown, 28 of those goals were in the last season and a half.

He's also a 6'3" center forward and very good in the air which is exactly what Pool needs to pair with Suarez.

If we get everybody we are linked with, life without Torres would be just fine:

Reina
Johnson/Kelly Carra/Skrtel Agger/Kelly Warnock/Aurelio

Gerrard Lucas/Adam Miereles

Young Carroll Suarez

He's only 22, he's English, he's not in the last year of his contract, he's 6'3 and can win everything in the air, its the last day of the transfer window, all other big CF options are already at big teams, he's English, and he's English.

This whole homegrown thing doesn't excuse the fact they way overpaid. They didn't need an Englishman. Surely there was someone, anyone out there of comparable talent they could have gotten for considerably cheaper. As a GM/pres of operations you should always have backup plans ready. For a guy like Comolli who prides himself as being some sort of uber-talent evaluator/hidden gem finder, I just think this purchase is extremely humorous.

Though I shouldn't really be surprised. This is the same method the Red Sox have used. Evaluate the right talent and pay whatever it takes to get them.

Funny:

We signed him from the Netherlands, Suarez, Suarez
He'll bite you on your neck again Suarez, Suarez
He plays in goal, he plays up front, he's better than that Torres count
Luis Suarez, Liverpool's number seven!

Suarez will always have a place in my heart. For that moment and for winning me $700.

Andy Carroll would definitely make losing Nando more manageable. But still, 35M is way too much cash.

Looks like Carroll might be as much as 40 million.

Again I will say
