If he's fit, he'll be a handful at this level. I somehow doubt he is though.

Doesn't that rather depend on what he contributes?

As he's been without a club since at least last July the evidence suggests he is not match fit. There is also a question of his injury record. Let's say it takes Carrol a month to get up to the required level of fitness that means he is available to play for only a month. That doesn't sound like a great deal for the club. Of course if you know more then I am sure you will tell me.

Issue is by the time he’s up to match fitness (if ever) he will be free to pick someone come January fully fit.

Could be for a LFW role for 5 or 10 minutes before the FT whistle blows.

Yep so it is in his interests to perform well and hope for a deal elsewhere in the January window

Of course, I don’t think that’s ever been his issue though, he works hard it’s his fitness that’s the issue. I maybe wrong but I don’t think you will see the best of him until he’s about to leave IF he stays fit.
