Liverpool FC Acquires Andy Carroll and Luis Suarez

So Liverpool FC went on and sold Fernando Torres for a whopping ₤50m. Understandably, they bought Andy Carroll for ₤35m and Luis Suarez for ₤22.7m. Coming from a Liverpool fan like myself since the days of Ian Rush, John Barnes, Robbie Fowler, Steve McManaman, I find this news pleasing and also a tad bit disappointed about Torres leaving.

But enough said, Fernando Torres wanted to leave to play Champions League football and with El Nino gone at the last few days remaining, Liverpool needed a backup plan and with time not on their side, they decided to go and pursuit Andy Carroll for the amount that maybe it’s worth more than what he is actually worth. I foresee that the Toons did not actually want to sell him but I guessed the staggering ₤35m price tag must have been too good to reject.

Nevertheless I would love to see Andy Carroll, one of the English upstarts and Luis Suarez playing together on their first match together. Liverpool has been missing with a big giant striker and Andy has got what it takes to take on the defenders. Luis Suarez though unknown to English football could be seen in action in the past World Cup in South Africa.

Of course, if Andy Carroll and Luis Suarez hit it right and the Kops love them, it will soon see a revival of what Liverpool used to be and hopefully able to squeeze through to the top 4 for Champions League football, it will be a delight to see which team would be booted out from the top 4. If it’s Chelsea, we’re bound to see messages like, “We told you to stay, but you didn’t want to“.

Though, I must say, a good buy from Liverpool, getting 2 strikers after offloading 1. Of course Ryan Babel was a miss if only he was given enough time in Liverpool.

For now enjoy the first few photos of Andy Carroll in his first few days at Liverpool. Welcome Andy Carroll.

Look at how tall and big this fellow is here. I wonder if I should get Andy Carroll’s Number 9 Jersey? Maybe I should.

Next in line we have Luis Suarez.

Luis Suarez sure looks good here.

I wonder what the Kop has to offer during this coming weekend in the BPL. Let’s hope for the best and YNWA.

PS: This is not a sponsored post. I am writing this, because I love Liverpool and would love to write about the club I adore. Of course, it would have been my dream if I was to meet the players and perhaps one day, watch them play live at Anfield.

You’ll Never Walk Alone! LIVERPOOL
