Disco Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 All those other England u21 forwards banged in the goals without him today. Chris Smalling, the 20-year-old Manchester United centre-back, slotted home from close range with just seven minutes left after a knockdown from substitute Daniel Sturridge to earn the Young lions the win. Livescores fucking up then: 63' [1 - 0] J. Henderson 71' [1 - 1] A.I. Hora 83' [2 - 1] C. Smalling Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Smalling score, Sturridge creating it though, will probably be enough to keep him instead of Carroll Who was upfront with him? or was Sturridge up by himself? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raconteur Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Shearer on Carroll as star signs new contract Alan Shearer has been impressed by Andy Carroll this season but feels it is too early to consider him an England player. In an exclusive interview he told Chief Sports Writer Luke Edwards why NO matter how talented you are, no matter how much potential you possess, no matter how much raw ability you have shown, nobody has ever ran before they walked. Mozart had to learn how to read music before he could compose a classic, Albert Einstein had to memorise his times tables before he could contemplate quantum physics and William Shakespeare had to learn to write before he could pen Macbeth. At 21, Andy Carroll is one of the most exciting prospects in the Premier League, but just because we expect him to become an England international does not mean it is necessarily going to happen. A hat-trick against Aston Villa in Newcastle’s first home game of the season sparked early talk of an England call-up and when he was left out of the Under-21 side by Stuart Pearce last week, two and two were put together and quickly added up to a first senior cap. Instead, Carroll has been ignored in favour of the 33-year-old Bolton Wanderers striker Kevin Davies, a journeyman Premier League forward who will almost certainly play no part in the European Championships in 2012 whether England qualify for them or not. It has been perceived as a snub by some, but Alan Shearer feels it was far more sensible than that. The former United skipper has been impressed with the young man who inherited his number nine shirt, but he also recognises his limitations. They are the limitations of inexperience, not talent, but they are enough to ensure Shearer is against expecting too much too quickly from Newcastle’s homegrown prospect. “There was a lot of talk about England, but I think it was too early for him and so, importantly, does he,” said Shearer, who has backed the decision to give the striker the number nine shirt this season. “I bumped into him this week and he said as much. He isn’t upset about it. He realises he still has some way to go before he is ready to play for England. “It would have been great for him, but it will come. He has made such big strides, if he carries on, he will get there. I was 21 when I made my England debut at Southampton, Andy is still only 20. “There is no point rushing him in and then saying he isn’t ready after one game. He needs to be nurtured and that is what Chris Hughton is doing at Newcastle. “He has vast potential, but that is all it is at the moment. At this stage, everyone who knows him and works with him has to try and turn that potential into consistent performances.” Carroll followed his first hat-trick for United with an equaliser at Wolverhampton, but his impact in the four games since has been less eye-catching. In that game against Villa, Carroll was relatively unknown, but scouts do their research and managers do their homework. They have seen what Carroll is capable of and they make sure they have plans to counter his threat. Dropped to the bench for the game at Manchester City last weekend with Shola Ameobi promoted to the starting XI, Shearer does not believe there is anything wrong with Carroll finding out the hard way how tough it is to play up front in the Premier League. He said: “I think Andy has had a good start to the season and I think, if you look at it as a whole, he’s scored four goals in seven games and he, and the team, would have taken that if you’d asked them a couple of months ago. “He is not going to be brilliant every match and you have to accept that. He is still young and he is still improving in every aspect of his game. “He didn’t start against Manchester City, and again that is something he will have to get used to. He isn’t going to play in every game when he is 20. He hasn’t started ten Premier League games yet in his career. “He will get better with experience. He is on a steep learning curve, but you cannot expect too much too quickly. He is going to have ups and downs, that’s football. The thing with being a striker is you are going to have periods when you score a lot of goals and you’re going to have periods where you wonder where the next goal is coming from. “How young players cope with that says a lot about their character. “It isn’t easy, but you have to accept it as part and parcel of playing in that position. There will be times when you are playing badly, having an absolute nightmare, but you still score the winner. “There will be other games where you’re playing brilliantly, get three or four chances and don’t stick a single one of them in the back of the net. He has to experience all of these things in order to develop his game.” Carroll’s first priority will be to win his place in the side back, although Shearer argues that is not a foregone conclusion. Another product of the youth team set-up and full of potential as a teenager, injuries and inconsistency have hampered Ameobi throughout his career, but he is still Newcastle’s most experienced Premier League striker and Shearer, a former teammate, knows what he is capable of. He added: “It could be quite a battle between Andy Carroll and Shola Ameobi this season. I’ve played with Shola and he has always shown flashes of brilliance. He was superb in training, but he has never managed to put it together over a long period of time in the first team. “He has the ability, but he needs to show it consistently. “He was brought back into the team at Manchester City and he will be hoping to keep hold of his place. “With the system Chris is playing at the moment, there is only space for one of them. That competition can only be good because they will both be desperate to hold on to the jersey. http://www.journallive.co.uk/nufc/newcastle-united-news/2010/10/09/shearer-on-carroll-as-star-signs-new-contract-61634-27434880/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
