Since rejoining Newcastle from West Ham United on a free transfer last summer, Carroll has managed 13 Premier League appearances for the club, providing four assists and averaged a WhoScored match rating of 6.75.
However, Carroll featured 96 times for the club during his first spell in the North East, scoring 33 goals and providing 21 assists, before making a £36.90million move to Liverpool in 2011.
Do you think Newcastle should keep Carroll if the takeover goes through?
Yes
No
It is likely that this previous spell with the club is why many of their fans are obviously fond of the striker, with many more sending him their well-wishes.
Great Post, Andy ?
