Carroll potentially to Chelsea, seems an odd one, I know Morata has missed a few chances, but Andy Carroll? |  |

This is what has happened to football. Clubs can now spend millions on millions on someone who is 'another option off the bench'. He's good for direct football if they need a plan b. He might score the winner in the CL final. He might barely see the pitch. In a game where the biggest 5-6 clubs are drowning in money it's worth it.
Meanwhile we'll be lucky to sign a free agent and a loanee this month. |  |

He is a very good player if fit. Chelsea probably think they can tune him up get some weight off and rehab him properly but I do struggle to see how he fits in their pattern of play. Having said that if anyone is a "cheap Diego Costa" then it's Andy Carroll. |  |

For £30m as well.
Might as well give that to Arsenal and get Alexis in. |  |

Big clubs have always done that though, the only difference now is the sums involved. | |

He's going to be on £490k a week before tax (£290k a week after) if he joins United. Think that's why Chelsea didn't pursue him anymore. |  |

Will Mourinho still be moaning about how they can't compete financially? |  |

Carrol seems to be everyone's fave panic buy!
Give him a few weeks and he'll get his laminated biff chit |  |

No reason for them to even be looking for a new striker really. Michy Batshuayi is a perfectly good striker who has scored a few goals already this season. Will probably go to another top European side and do a good job
Though Chelsea have a habit of replacing decent back ups with other back ups who are not actually any better..
Demba Ba, Eto'o, Schürrle, Remy, Falcao etc. |  | | |

Indeed, but this is also probably a deal Moyes would bite their hand off to complete
Was assuming Carroll would see out his contract and eventually join Newcastle on a free - no idea when his contract runs out
Must be on a high salary so didn't see anyone offering West Ham decent money |  |

Just seen this on the proposed Carrol to Chelsea rumour
"The 29-year-old is wanted by the champions due to his height and aerial presence. Crystal Palace frontman Christian Benteke also among the options being considered."
What the actual...? Benteke to Chelsea? A player who Crystal Palace are desperate to replace with someone who can actually score.. Just keep Batshuayi and have done with it. | | | |
