People blame Andy for going, but you can\u2019t really blame anyone. You can\u2019t blame the owners for the money they got,&#8221; he said according to the <em>Daily Mail.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was for the best for the club. It&#8217;s worked out better that Andy has gone, although we\u2019d love to have him still here.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We\u2019d probably have a few more points and would probably build a team which was going to be great around him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We\u2019re in such a fantastic position, let\u2019s just see what happens. The money we got was astronomical.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Newcastle sit in mid-table, having been promoted back to the Premier League last year, with Carroll one of the main reasons the Toon Army have done so well this season. But Nolan revealed that his former team-mate has been giving nothing away ahead of Sunday&#8217;s clash.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He\u2019s been a bit sheepish with me this week. He has been in touch and texted, but we are not giving too much away to each other. He\u2019s desperate to play and wants to see all the lads,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In my eyes it\u2019ll hit him when he sees Newcastle the team he grew up with and loved for so long, playing against him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/e7b7f62e639_186x236.jpg-150x150.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Read the original post:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.goal.com\/en-gb\/news\/2896\/premier-league\/2011\/04\/30\/2464856\/kevin-nolan-claims-newcastle-united-are-better-off-without\" title=\"Kevin Nolan claims Newcastle United are better off without Andy Carroll\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kevin Nolan claims Newcastle United are better off without Andy Carroll<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Kevin Nolan believes Newcastle United are better o Andy Carroll, Liverpool Related Links Teams Players Newcastle United midfielder Kevin Nolan believes his team are in a better position after selling striker Andy Carroll to Liverpool for \u00a335 million.
