Yet more rumours abound about the future of Liverpool‘s Scott Carson, as he appears to be making his way to Aston Villa on loan for the new season. The ‘Pool sent the England U21 ‘keeper on loan to Charlton last season which saw him applauded for his performances in sticks. Now, in the quest for first team football, and with an eye on breaking into the senior team for England, Carson is off to Villa.
With Pepe Reina keeping Carson from breaking into the Liverpool starting XI, one must ask if Rafa is mental for keeping Carson as a fringe player. Carson is clearly going to make a decent impact on the Premier League and hopefully, will push Paul Robinson for his place in the national side. Of course, Benitez may be thinking that Carson is one for the future, and thus, all the Prem’ experience he’s getting will only serve to make him a better shot stopper in a couple of years. However, will Carson be getting pissed off with being shunted around? Will he want to make a switch to somewhere else? What are your thoughts Pieheads?
