This guy has been passed around Orient, Derby, QPR and now us. He sounds like the new josh McCraechan or whatever he was called. He may well fit in because of how we play but I cant see him getting in ahead of Fulton when fit or Britton.
A lad in work said it was more like Spurs weakening us by letting I'm come to us, QPR fans hated him.
Cant see the point. |
I remember Middlesbrough fans saying the same thing about Emnes... not worth money and not a good footballer and look how he turned out, certainly played a part in keeping us away from relegation. hes only 22 so obviously he would go to lower teams to get experience and QPR are no way anywhere near our style of football so he nmight not have been good there doesn't mean he wont be good at swansea.
Like i said before Im not making an opinion till i see him play, i'm certainly not going to write him off before he even steps on the pitch. someone who is good enough to break into a busy midfield at totenham will certainly know how to prove himself and work hard for a club.
wished he was a transfer and not a loan though. would like to see him work into our team in the long term and maybe we would have a future england internatonal playing for us | | | |

Given up on JJS then ? |  |

I like the signing. He'll get plenty of game time especially with Leon out for another month.
Ki, Leon, JJS, Carroll and Fulton. I'm happy with that. |  | | |

He's going to change his name to Tomas Carolazio to get the fans on his side... |  |

And don't talk to the press. 'Cos that just reeks of arrogance and David Brent-ism. Or something. |  |

Any info if this affects our pursuit of Stambouli or Cork??
Im happy with the guy despite being slightly underwhelmed aslong as we get the required DM in. |  |

I'd prefer it if it was a permanent deal too. The boy has worked himself up through the divisions and now he's a SCFC Finishing School. I just can't help thinking that he's keeping one (or two) of our players on the bench while he develops himself for the benefit of Spurs.
Cartilage Free Captain:
Long-time blog favorite Tom Carroll is making a nice step up in competition, heading on loan to Swansea City. There, he should have one last shot to prove to Tottenham Hotspur that he's a high level Premier League player.
Carroll was given a chance to win a first team place upon returning from Queens Park Rangers, but his preseason performances were a bit erratic. He was out-performed by Ryan Mason, and central midfield was always going to be a tough position to crack at Spurs anyway.
At Swansea, it's not exactly clear what position Carroll will play or what his opportunities for playing time will look like. The Swans have lost Alejandro Pozuelo, Michu and Jonathan De Guzman, but have brought in Gylfi Sigurdsson and have Ki Sung-Yeung back after his very solid season at Sunderland. There could be time at central midfield and attacking midfield available for Carroll, but he's not clearly first choice at either spot.
This is going to end up being a make or break year for Carroll. If he's spectacular, he'll get another chance at Spurs. If he's just okay, he'll probably be sold to a Swansea-level team. If he struggles, it's not clear what his future holds. |  | | |

Agreed! Lots of Spurs fans thought he'd break into their team or thereabouts this year.
By the way - I also don't know anything about Stambouli and I'm sure that most on here don't either other than a you tube clip.
For those saying it's another Josh Mceachran - it's just as likely of course to be another Caulker. |
That’s what I was thinking. The last youngster we loaned off Spurs, did very well.
Welcome to Swansea Tom |  |

Never really liked to loan players without a buyout clause, but welcome Tom ... lets see what the future brings. |  |
| Half portuguese and half danish, mixing Sagres and Carlsberg is my birthright. | | Poll: | Style of play. |

Good to have an open mind aye. |  |

So has anyone ever seen this guy play before? You all seem to be criticising him yet how many of you have actually watched him before. |  | | |
| Tom Caroll signed on loan on 22:22 - Aug 22 with 2402 views | 1jack |
Ridiculous uneducated reaction by some on here, absolutely stupid, I know someone who has seen him play a few times and said he is quality. I'm sorry but some on here are really pathetic. |  | | |

Most of those slagging him off, have probably never even heard of him, let alone seen him play.
I most certainly had not heard of him, but will wait until he plays a few games before, passing judgement. [Post edited 23 Aug 2014 2:19]

He looks a Swansea type of player! As for him being not rated by QPR well to take any notice of what that scummy clubs fans think of a footballer is laughable. |  |

He's quite clearly a back up and so I hope he gets very limited game time here as any game time he gets would be at the expense of players far more talented than himself.
That being said I hope he enjoys his time here. |

If Dwight was still around, he'd find a way to argue that everything he said was correct. In his own head, he'd probably believe it too. |  |

What are the chances of Carroll replacing Ki in league games during the Asian Cup? |  | | |

I would say it has a probability of around 1. | |
