Liverpool Offer Carroll To Newcastle!

The Magpies and West Ham United have again been offered the chance to sign the former Toon No 9.

After telling Newcastle they are wasting their time tracking Carroll - Rodgers has now made his feelings clear as he wants to sign Clint Dempsey from Fulham and Theo Walcott from Arsenal in the last two days of the transfer window.

But Liverpool have told him he must sell to buy.

And this means that Carroll must be offloaded (even to Newcastle and face the humiliation of writing off a loss of £18m to the Geordies) for him to get his wish.

Rodgers: "I don't think we are in a position to have 35million players as third choice strikers.

"It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that Andy has been a cover player for us in the opening two games."

NEWCASTLE UNITED REVIEW 2011/12

j

Newcastle United fans have seen their team come a long way since earning promotion back to the Premier League in 2010 and nobody could have predicted the exciting season that lay ahead at the start of the 2011/12 campaign.

This was a season of rejuvenation as changes were made both on and off the pitch with fresh talent drafted in, in the form of Cissé, Cabaye, Ba and Obertan to name a few, and manager Alan Pardew delivering a brand of attacking football that earned him both the Barclays and LMA Manager of the Season awards. 

With the new signings settling in well, and with a good core of players already at the club, Newcastle United undertook an incredible journey that saw them return to the upper echelons of the Premier League and secure a place in Europe the following season, only narrowly missing out on a Champions League place.

There was plenty to cheer this season as stalwarts of the team Fabricio Coloccini, Cheick Tiote and Jonas Gutierrez all solidified their reputations at the heart of the club and Tim Krul and Hatem Ben Arfa both delivered impressive displays.

Relive this exhilarating season in full with highlights of every game and every goal from the campaign including victories over Sunderland, Liverpool, Chelsea and a dominating demolition of 2010/11 champions Manchester United.
