Alan Pardew said that he spoke to Andy Carroll about the speculations and Carroll was fine with the situation. Pardew added, "He understands he has got a lot of learning to do and I think the most important thing is he wants to play for Newcastle. I said
to him: 'I do not want to talk for you. We are talking together. It is important you want to stay and if you do, that is great news for us.' Because we will make sure he stays."
It has been reported that the legendary manager of Manchester United is looking to bolster the striking options at Old Trafford. Sir Alex Ferguson is looking for one more striker as questions marks remain over some of his current players. He sees the Newcastle
striker as the missing link. Moreover, the sudden departure of former New Castle manager http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chris-c9006 Hughton has also seen Andy Carroll being linked with moves away from the St. James Park.

Pardew added, "He does a lot of things very, very well. That is why he is such a target for other managers. What he does do well, he does very, very well and if he can improve the other side to his game, link up play, movement, he is going to be a top, top
player."
Sir Alex reportedly wants to strengthen his squad as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Michael-Owen-c25355 is also expected to depart Old Trafford in the next

choice.
