    Left Newcastle “amicably “. Pay as you play arrangement might work for us, and him. Or too old for us probably?

    I think he's lost his mojo and has been in and out both tactically and injured for that long he barely resembles a professional footballer.

    Too old and wages would be too high I would guess. Even on a pay as you play deal. A fit Andy Carroll though would be a good weapon in this league. Lacks pace but amazing in the air.

    I reckon a Premier League team would still be up for taking a risk on him.

    He takes the term "ring rusty" to a new level. Looked cumbersome when I saw him play last season.

    No way would we be interested and I dont think we should be - Id expect him to appear at a top end championship side somewhere like Cardiff or Swansea would be my guess

    I can see Wigan or Bolton taking a suicidal gamble.
    One or both must be due a big shop soon?

    We don’t need AC. We already know how comfortable our treatment tables are!

    Never in a million years for us. Someone will take a gamble though. Someone who is happy to spend money they don't have, safe in the knowledge that nothing will be done about it.

    Be surprised if he gets a club unless he lowers what wage demands some folk may think he can command.

    He might be better suited to the style of play down at the Hawthorns.

    1 goal in 2 years... What prem team would risk that on his wages?

    Championship clubs have a surprising habit of spending loads of money on dross, never rule them out.

    I wouldn't have him simply on the grounds that he isn't good enough

    As mentioned above, I can see WBA taking a punt, or even maybe our neighbours at S6 League One Outfit Sheffield Wednesday. They love signing a striker on outrageous wages.

    Rather sign Lewis at least they could pull a rabbit out of a hat and organise a decent tea party.
