Quote ="El Pac Carnegie"Probably. I don't care how old Carroll is you have to have shown you have what it takes in the top division for more than a few months to be worth that kind of money IMO. It's an absolutely incredible contract. Rooney, the supposed best player of the current English generation, was sold for £10mil less than Carroll and was younger with more top flight experience. Incredible stuff.'"
Plus Rooney came off the back of a big Euro2004 which drove the price up.
