Why not?

You might be on to something there.

Being reported on SSN too. No quotes or nuffink though.

SCM · 29th January 2012, 10:05

No official word yet from City but unofficially as soon as they can pick themselves up off from the floor from laughing a proper response will be shortly released. But insiders at City do not expect this announcement any time soon as the laughing fit is expected to go on for a few months at least.

If skysports news told me the grass was green I'd go out and check it.
They would say anything to get you to stay tuned and look at their adds all day

Coxy · 29th January 2012, 10:13

People actually believe this rubbish?

Bryan_Munich · 29th January 2012, 10:21

You can't blame them for enquiring.

Thought Marwood confirmed it and stated they weren't interested?

Oh please let this be true

Especially after the show of support he received.He wins a couple of headers and 'he's developing nicely'.Didn't think they splashed 35m on someone to be still developing nicely

How embarrassing for the dippers, especially after KK has spent seemingly countless interviews defending Carroll. Now they've been outed as secretly plotting to swap him for a player who obviously doesn't want to play in England.

Maybe the owners made an enquiry behind his back.

They got 50mil for Torres from Chelsea, so why not try...hehe

Adzzz · 29th January 2012, 12:37

Tevez is lightyears ahead of him in every way. Won't happen though.

Agent Red · 29th January 2012, 13:04

Surely this story can't be true? It's ridiculous.

They have to fill the papers with something....whether there is an element of truth in it or not, that's something else...

Bryan_Munich · 29th January 2012, 13:06

It's not ridiculous from Liverpool's perspective.

Varun_Utd · 29th January 2012, 13:14

It'd be hilarious if they still think caroll is worth 25mil.

Let's be honest, offering Carroll is a better offer than Torres!!

I buy the Observer regularly, but tend not to read the sport because I've already read all the stories on here or on BBC, and because even the respectable papers are not very reliable.

Mr Anderson · 29th January 2012, 14:49

I saw this on SSN recently, I nearly fell off my chair with the laughter

Neo_Mufc · 29th January 2012, 16:40

It's ok if they sell the warrior because they bought him for -15 million.

Rednails · 29th January 2012, 17:18

It's on the front page of the Sunday Times too. Came from a source at Man City who said they rejected the offer immediately. Liverpool denied it.

Escobar · 29th January 2012, 17:36

Doubt it, but if true, it would destroy his confidence probably even more

BaldwinLegend · 29th January 2012, 17:44

I'm sure it's true but it's unforgivable of Liverpool to let it leak out. Very unfair on Carroll.

Tevez would be a good fit at Liverpool - that whole tribal thing he revels in would fit in well at Anfield.

Bryan_Munich · 29th January 2012, 17:55

Maybe City leaked it.

Good point. Either way, they'll do well now if Carroll's confidence isn't totally fucked.

Suarez - Tevez seems like a rather odious strike partnership.

Jimy_Hills_Chin · 29th January 2012, 18:00

If true, it is a very poor and ill advised move by Liverpool. Firstly, there is absolutely no chance of City ever accepting such an absurd offer. Secondly, it is anecdotal evidence, suggesting to other clubs, that there are serious problems with Carroll's ability or attitude and thirdly, it undermines the confidence of a player that is clearly struggling badly to find some.

Skholesy · 29th January 2012, 18:59

I don't think City were adverse to letting Tevez join Liverpool, after all Tevez is never going to play for them again, is finding a club and is more interested in spending time on the golf course.

The only reason they rejected it was because they didn't want Andy Carroll near their club!

Bryan_Munich · 31st January 2012, 14:09

Looks like Dalglish was wound up by City leaking it.

marjen · 31st January 2012, 14:24

I believe my presence is now needed in this thread, due to my username. I will make it my mission to comment on every possible swop deal I hear about.

On this alleged swop deal, I'll say the following:

Carlos Tevez is heavy.
