9 Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Strange that hes not on pens, i guess everything has just moved forward so fast the in the last year, but now he should be training at it as hes far to young to just say hes no good at them/ not a pen taker.

Guest BooBoo Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 He has a strange penalty technique as witnessed in the friendly at Deportivo. Happy with Nolan or the Big Sho on penalty duty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest schmuck Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 I can't think of many players with as lanky a frame as him who've made good penalty takers, the longer your limbs the easier you are to read for one, and his technique doesn't seem suited to pens for me somehow. Shola being the best exception with tall players I can think of, but then his style is more languid and ultimately he's an absolute law unto himself. Overall its not about scoring records though is it, as nice as it is to see your no. 9 bag as many as possible, it should always be the best penalty taker in the team stepping up for the greater good.

Taylor Swift Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 His feet still aren't quick enough for his ground game to be top class, but it's been getting better. If he can improve his technique, ball control and passing, he'd be world class. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AfroP Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 The charges against him for chinning his ex lass have been dropped "Newcastle United striker Andy Carroll has had a charge of assaulting his former girlfriend dropped. He appeared in court accused of attacking Laurie Henderson at her home in Northumberland on 17 October. The hearing was adjourned until January with an initial bail condition that he lived with club captain Kevin Nolan. But the Crown Prosecution Service said after it reviewed the evidence it had decided there was not a realistic chance of conviction. A CPS spokesman said: "We take all cases such as this extremely seriously and we considered the evidence initially provided by the police and decided the correct charge was one of assault by beating. "We have a duty to keep cases under constant review and once we received a full file of evidence before the trial we looked at the case again. "Having reviewed all the evidence now available, we have decided there is no longer a realistic prospect of conviction and we are no longer proceeding with the case against Andrew Carroll." He said a letter had been sent to Miss Henderson to explain the decision. Three days after the court had ordered Mr Carroll to live with his captain, his car was targeted in an arson attack outside Mr Nolan's Northumberland home. In October, the player pleaded guilty to a separate assault charge after an incident at a Newcastle nightclub and was fined £1,000." http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tyne-11978638 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 his first touch can let him down at times as well (see yesterday jonas ball to him gets his touch all wrong) Christ sake man. Considering how much he was involved yesterday, he's bound to have a couple of poor touches. His first touch is fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisMcQuillan Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 How many goals has he scored in this calendar year? Most of last season's came after January. He was on three pre-January wasn't he? That would mean he's scored 26 goals in 2010 so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
