Liverpool Transfer News: Andy Carroll Should Accept Permanent Move to West Ham

1 HR AGO - Andy Carroll must focus on restoring his status as a talented young striker with upside. It's a reputation that faded during his brief Liverpool stint. So although West Ham United might not be his first-choice club, it's the best place for him right now. West Ham agreed with Liverpool on a £15 million deal that would make Carroll's loan at Upton Park become permanent and now the Reds are hoping for a quick answer from the striker, according to Andy Hunter of The Guardian.The report states Carroll remains unsure about committing to a full-time stay with the Irons. He still prefers making a return impact with Liverpool or going back to where he initially skyrocketed to prominence, Newcastle United, but those options are fading.Reds manager Brendan Rodgers said he already talked with Carroll about the situation and will continue to do so moving forward until a resolution is found.It's a difficult one. I spoke to him and we had a good chat. The boy is a talent. It's just something Collapse

Arsenal Transfers: Gunners Need to Sign the Right Player to Boost Attack
1 HR AGO - All the talk concerning Arsenal's possible transfer signings for the attacking third have centered Expand
1 HR AGO - All the talk concerning Arsenal's possible transfer signings for the attacking third have centered mainly on Stevan Jovetic and, more recently, Gonzalo Higuain.Given Arsenal fans' preference for a big name signing, as well as their obvious quality, these two players make sense. The Gunners need a forward who will score goals consistently, and while some fans have their doubts about Jovetic's ability in that respect, Higuain is proven in that area.Still, enough has been said about the duo in relation to Arsenal in recent times.There are other names that have cropped up as potential additions, or replacements, for the Gunners, and each option has to be weighed.Christian Benteke, Loic Remy, and Wilfried Bony are the players in question.Like Jovetic and Higauin, plenty has been said about Benteke and fans have seen him in Premier League play throughout the season.Of all these options, he's the only one who can fully pass that "Premier League-proven" test.Loic Remy's half-season with Collapse

1 HR AGO - Click here to have the Fiver sent to your inbox every weekday at 5pm, or if your usual copy has stopped arrivingTHE ROONEY BLUESWith all that fuss over Lord Ferg's retirement, the Fiver kind of forgot about Wayne Rooney's transfer request. It's easily done. It's not so much that the news is irrelevant, it's just that, well, with other stuff going on, it's just kind of hung around like an aimless prog-rock album track. Only now that there is ABSOLUTELY EFF ALL ELSE HAPPENING, is it actually making itself heard, so it's handy Rooney's Mr 15% has piped up to remind the world that his client still exists. And having spent the last week busy thinking of another boy's name that began with K that wasn't Kai, apparently Rooney is still very much interested in being paid £300,000 a week to play second fiddle to a better striker than him somewhere else.Namely, baguette-swinging, garlic-peeling, cool-electro-music-producing nouveau riche Ligue 1 champions, Paris Saint-Germain and Mr Zlatan.
