I do however find it strange watching the Liverpool fans celebrating on SSN when your best player is on his way out too.

My personal opinion is that he has the potential to be a great player, but £35million is the kind of money you pay for a player that's already proved it over a period of time not someone who might.

Proven premiership striker Darren Bent goes for £24mil. A player who was playing in the Championship last season goes for £35mil. Incredible valuation. Kenny/Commoli are either going to look like geniuses or absolute idiots with this move.

Carroll & Suarez or Torres?

Carroll & Suarez anyday. That's maybe why they're celebrating.

Torres is one of the best strikers in the world, quite possibly the best.

As much potential as Carroll has, he isn't worth just £15m less than Torres. With Suarez, it remains to be seen how he'll perform in the PL. Very good player, yes, but Liverpool have again paid over the odds on him in my opinion.

Charlie Adam is at Blackpool apparently and not on his way to Liverpoo as previously stated.

Suarez can go one of two ways similar to other strikers who scored hatfuls in the Eredivise. He could be another Van Nistelrooy and kick on or become another Mateja Kezman and kick the bucket.

It depends how we end up playing him, he was Ajax's everything in attack, so he scored goals galore. I can see us trying to use his ability more, whilst I will expect about 15-20 league goals a season from him, I think he'll show more of his creative ability here.
