I think at 10million Carson is very expensive, i dont think many teams would pay that for him, more like 6 million, if not we'll have to look around the continent, there are many good keepers around, especially with Euro 2008 MON should look around. |

carson is a quality goalkeeper but 10 mil is alot to ask but he has a hell of alot of potential, i think he will be england number 1. if gordan is worth what sunderland paid then carson is worth that |

rafa has probly realised that itandje is crap and martin is young, unproven and english, we should be able to buy him if the fee was agreed, its usually part of the loan contract. but as its villa, we'll probably bend over n take it up the arse (allow liverpool to not go through with what they agreed) because it seems like we are walkovers when it comes to spending recieving money. |

For me, Carson hasn't performed well enough this season to be worth anywhere near £10 million. If we do buy him, it will be totally on the blind faith that he will improve with age, which might not happen. He's quite average in my opinion. I'd be more inclined to go for this American guy and give Stuart Taylor a chance as our number 1. |

Taylor as No.1 choice, with Tommy/Brad as back-up? Or Carson for £10mn? What would you do? Am I asking too many questions? |

a mon avis scott carson c'est trés mauvais est c'est trés chére pour dix million. je crois que MON pouvais trouver un autre GK qui est plus reliabléat plus conistanté. merci poota |

Not in a million years is Carson worth 10million. Any half decent goalie would have caught that awfull Bullard free kick. I can't remember him pulling off 1 great save this season & when the shots rain in the ball never sticks. |

Watch tonight's US/Mexico match. You'll see Guzan, and you'll see why he'll be the #1 choice when MON brings him in. |

@Gabby26 Tres mauvaise?, No IMO, he's not that bad. Remember he's only 23YO. £10mill is too much though, I agree  |

I believe that MON could find another GK which is more reliable more consistant. thank you poota |

I think Craig Gordon was worth his fee... he's done more than most to keep Sunderland in contention for staying up. Carson is not quite in that league IMHO. |

if ten million is the cost of an england goalkeeper then pay it,, but we need the right one. in my opinion we should try and sign paul robinson and make good on our failed attempt several years ago.... if only we'd kept david james..... |

ironic that most posters here think Carson is not worth 10m yet on "The Doc's Diagnosis" thread most are banging on about how O'Neill should pay over the odds for just about anybody half decent or in the "superstar" bracket |

The problem I have with Stuart Taylor is that statiscally speaking we always seem to concede when he plays despite seeming him pull off good saves. This has been the case last season and also before that I feel. Maybe Carson can communicate with the defenders better becasue we seem to have less to do when he plays. |

no way is Scott Carson worth £10.000000,Liverpool have a contracted player that hasn't played for them for something like three seasons and they value him at ten mill,so how much do they rate their current goalkeepers 30-40 mil get real,the reds are trying to pull a fast one,five or six mil maybe but not ten. |

only prob with carson too was when was the last time he kept a clean sheet he seems to make a few too many blunders if we bought him i dont think he will blossum till another 3 or 4 years maybe more That guzan is around his age but looks alot more confident at crosses i think the last time we had a confident keeper was bosnich |

Craig gordon better than carson what in the blue hell are u on about? Gordon has been absolutly rubbish this season Carson has done enough to earn a full time contract at villa but we all no what villa are like when it comes to buying players allways whinge about paying over the odds get used to it thats how football runs these days even the likes of bourmouth no that |

Keep in mind we already paid 2m just to have Carson on loan for the season... we could have bought Guzan for that much O_O |

Not too convinced about Carson. He seems ok and doesn't make that many big errors, well for Villa anyway. Then again - he doesn't come for crosses and doesn't seem to talk that much to the defence. He also seems to be beaten to shots form distance that you would have to question if a 10M goalie should be stopping. Why not him both him and the yank and let them fight it out. The fact that one costs 2m and the other 10m is probably solely because Carson is english. Best Villa argument for a while - http://www.vbbfootball.com/?p=41 I now promise to stop whinging about transfers, but all bets are off at the end of the next transfer window - and Carson and Davies count as last summers signings if they happen!!! |

I think the delay in signing may be due to the uncertainty with respect to the future of Benitez. If they sack him, the new manager may prefer Carson to Reina (who being Spanish is closely linked to Benitez) |

ze boy Carson , he is (and i shall zay these only once) utterly and completely useless at stopping any ball moving faster than about 15mph....if it doesn't hit him it goes in the net !!! my hovercraft is full of eels. |

Taylor would probably have done better this season had he played the same games, i think if Sunderland go down we should buy Gordon at a cut price. He looks decent but he's gonna let goals in when he's got to save 20 shots a game, Carson makes ro many mistakes for me, Bullards free-kick was a joke and that wasn't the first incident of it's kind. |

last time we had a keeper that you never worried about was jimmy rimmer...awsome keeper,,and anyone who was at anfield the season we won the league,would have seen the best by a villa keeper ever..some scousers in the seats said theyd never seen a better keeper up there,,and they had clemence....on carson hes suspect but can only get better..pay the 10 mil,if thats what it takes |

Carson worth 10 mill! your having a laugh, i would rather Villa had paid 9 mill for Craig Gordon, he has won man of the match for Suderland on a number of occasions, i don't think Carson has won it once for Villa. If it wasn't for the majestic Laursen he would have probably conceded a lot more goals. The man doesn't seem that interested in playing for Villa. As for being England Goalkeeper, it's only because were thin on the ground for good quality English keepers that he is even in the England squad in my opinion. |

To all of you who believe £10 is too much for a goalkeeper, you're all missing one crucial fact. Scott Carson is 22 years old. Let's compare this potential deal to the two current most expensive 'keeper deals in Premier League history. Fabian Barthez joined Man United in 2000 for a then record £7.8m. Many people thought he was the best in the world and that United were getting a good deal. At the time he was 29 years old. He lasted less then 4 years as United's top keeper, before they paid him to terminate his deal. Craig Gordon joined Sunderland at the start of the season for a deal that will eventually reach £9m. Gordon is 25 and has so far, been average at best. Sunderland took a big risk because they had no idea how Gordon would perform in the Premiership. If I were a Sunderland fan, so far I'd be very angry that my club forked out a record fee for a player like that (though I admit he has plenty of time to turn it around). Carson is 22, and by the end of the season will have 2 full seasons of Premiership experience under his belt. We know he's good enough, most of us reckon he has the potential to become one of the best in the league and certainly England's number one keeper. If all went according to plan, he would be our goalkeeper probably until he reached his mid 30's. Who else in the world could we buy who has all of these positive factors? £10m for a proven quality Premiership goalkeeper who could give us 10 years of service and become England's first choice? Sounds like a bargain if you ask me. |
