Liverpool striker Andy Carroll could be in line for a shock return to Newcastle on a short-term loan.

The big striker has failed to settle at Anfield following his £35million move a year ago, and has scored just five goals since leaving the North-East.

And talkSPORT understands from a source close to the player that he would be open to a move back to his former club.

Alan Pardew is a big admirer of the England striker and has always left the door open for Carroll to return to St James' Park.

The Toon boss was full of praise for Carroll before his side's 3-1 defeat at Liverpool last week, saying: "You never want to lose great players and we never wanted to lose Andy. I'd take him back if I had the chance.

"If the fee offered by Liverpool had not been so high, he'd still be here."
Carroll is reportedly growing increasingly unsettled on Merseyside and often travels back to Tyneside to see family and friends.

Newcastle are short on striking options, and their resources will be stretched still further when top scorer Demba Ba goes away with the Ivory Coast on African Cup of Nations duty later this month.

And with Liverpool being linked with a big money move for Aston Villa striker Darren Bent, it could suit all parties for Carroll to return to Newcastle on a short-term deal as he seeks to re-discover his best form.

Wouldn't this just be golden. Liverpool should ask for Torres back on loan from Chelsea to cover for his "loss".
 
So Suarez gets an 8 game ban and Liverpool loan Carroll to Newcastle? :lol:

Would be funny if Torres was loaned back to the scousers though, all them burnt shirts :lol::lol:

He'd quickly turn from Judas to the Messiah. Those scousers and their meddling with biblical figures.
 
Would be quite amusing if he started banging in the goals for Newcastle, and stated his desire to never return to Anfield.
 
No chance this will happen.

Carroll on loan to Newcastle is infinitely more likely than Torres on loan to Liverpool, in my opinion.

Who said it wasn't? Are you looking for a disagreement that doesn't exist?

It was a tongue in cheek comment, which I have quite clearly explained.

Carry on though.
 
Wont happen. The shitstorm and the bad press would be unbearable for the scousers. Atleast, dalglish always seems to present a picture of carroll having a great game but just not being able to finish a chance. A 35mil player sent on loan would be hilarious though.

The dogs in the street in Brum reckon he's off anyway. I hope Pool wax the lot on him. Not the answer for them at all.

I'm from Birmingham.

Yep the rumour is that Bent is really unhappy with his life at Aston Villa..........he has a bad relationship with McLeish and he was totally pissed about the sales from Young & Downing in the summer.
 
So effectively Liverpool have handed Newcastle 35 million pound for nothing? The player will still be playing for the old club :lol::lol::lol:

This tops anything Rafa has ever done. In fact compared to the chronic ineptitude of KKK Kenny, Rafa actually looks like a managerial genius
 
A year later and both rumours of Carroll and Torres moving are surfacing, what an absolute clusterfeck both transfers turned out to be. Beggars belief clubs with so much money and with so many people involved who are supposed to know what they're doing can make such ludicrously poor and costly decisions.

Did you see Feeky's bit on Bent there recently? A serious eye opener in terms of Bents stats and the preception thats out there about his goal scoring record.

It's not a swap deal, Ba would still be there.

But they'd have to pay higher wages to a worse player and deal with his woman-hitting behavior. I just can't see why they'd want him. They should take Diouf out on loan. It would be a better way to spend the money and resources. ;)
 
They bought Cpt. Morgan for 35m and now they want to ship him off.

Yarr!
