I've developed a real soft spot for Brad. Comes across as an intelligent, level-headed bloke. Quite a rarity amongst footballers.

It means we are not signing him
Did he even compliment him on what a terrific player he is?

I think if Rodgers doesn't think Carroll would fit into his system then AVB certainly wouldn't either, they may have slightly different ways of playing but it will be largely the same.

AVB today said he is not interested in Lloris.

He must be in for another Sweeper Keeper.
Lloris is not a very good sweeper keeper actually

Do you have the direct quote?

Adebayor update from Galahad:
"DL and ade agreed wages. Sticking point is the fee. We're offering 5m. City have come down a bit but still a gap of a couple of million. We can afford to pay what they're asking, and they can afford to take what we're offering, so we're hopeful that a compromise can be reached soon."

Rodgers aspires to be Barcelona. Carroll wouldnt work there.
I think AVB aspire to win. I can well see Carroll working in a very similar fashion to Falcao in his Porto days.

no, it was mentioned on talksport by their reporter who was at the press conference. This info seems to belost amongst all the other more important snippets from the conference being reported by all the media.

Ah phew that must be the reason why AVB doesn't want him. He's probably gonna find a fantastic sweeper keeper in due time and i can't wait.

Just wish we had a direct quote, sometimes these things get reported one way and what he actually said could have been interpreted different ways. Talksport doesn't exactly have the best reputation anyway. Will just have to wait and see then I suppose...

WHAT? WTF? WHATTTTT?
but what about the Sweeper keeper superdooper FM cheat tactic that was so vital to the way we were going to play under AVB's new style? people were saying it was vital we'd get this sweeper keeper as Brad just doesn't fit in (and he's old too).
SERIOUS RELEGATION FEARS.
Well AVB doesn't. If you were head coach of Spurs and you were planning on buying Carroll, I'd be the first one starting the nayimfromthehalfwayline out!!!!! thread.
It's all paper talk so far without any quotes so perhaps AVB plans to work on Brad's SWEEPER KEEPER skills.
Lloris would be a bit of a coup for Spurs so I can imagine the word from Levy is like you say to deflect any questions with standard responses.
