Remember when we almost sold him to Portsmouth in our relegation season? The worst part would be that the money would never have materialized from those schysters running Pompey.
FML.
It's not even just that. The whole article pretty much says "There's some really good players abroad...but I don't know any of them so I'm going to buy some shit from League One since I know that league."
He had horrible technique in the shoot out against Deportivo. If that's how he normally takes a penalty I'm not surprised he's low down in the pecking order.
Have to say I was wrong about him. At the beginning of the season I wanted him dropped. The games where he hasn't played have really highlighted how defensively minded our midfielders are. When he's in the team there's actually someone for Carroll to knock headers down to and create chances. He has his limitations but he's playing well to his strengths at the moment. Don't know how much of an influence he is as captain but it looks like he makes a positive difference anyway.
Aye. The fact that he's been in on it for months and been lurking in the shadows waiting for it to happen is exactly why no-one should support him. He's one of them.
