Carew who?
Posted on November 10th, 2010 | 75 Comments |
He’s powerful and good in the air with an eye for goal and he’s experienced and 37 goals from 87 starts isn’t a bad record in the Premier League.
But an average of 10 goals a season in three years – is it any better then what United already have? A fit Shola Ameobi could achieve that and could Carew form a partnership with either Carroll or Ameobi? so like for like.
I don’t expect a move for Carew, he doesnt fit in with the kind of signings made by Hughton, players he can develop and who can be moulded into the side.
At 31 years of age I could see him being another Mark Viduka for United, a player already with injury problems coming so St James and doing very little for us.
Carew has been branded as “stupid” and of “living in the past” by Houllier, who also stated that Carew had to do more to win a new contract at the club by Gerard Houllier this week and known for being problematic for O’Neill again is he really a player who would fit into the new, all in it together attitude of the current United side?

My guess is this is more Carew’s agent fuelling up talk of a move and letting people know he is a free agent in the summer.
I just hope Hughton doesn’t get any ideas with the paper talk.
Definatly wouldn’t want Carew! but with possibly Best, Lovenkrands & Xisco on their way our i think it’s pretty obviously that next season we are going to need a partner for Carroll, personally i would like to see Kevin Doyle but i think Hughton will go for someone younger and next season have a striker force of;
Carroll, Doyle, Ameobi, Ranger, Airey. :-)
