A £35m bid for a player who has only half a season in the Premiership represents a good piece of business by any account.
However, the fact that Newcastle have been unable to get a replacement for Carroll have left many Newcastle fans worried about their future this season.
Contrast it with Liverpool who have lost their talisman Fernando Torres but have replaced him with Suarez and Carroll.
Newcastle made a number of late unsuccessful bids, including a £10m bid for Wigan's N'Zogbia which was flatly dismissed as there was so little time left for them to seek a replacement.
