Could have got more than the one goal yesterday but I'm splitting hairs, he deserves a lot of credit for how he has come on. He's a genuine threat, other teams are setting up to nullify him in attack, it's all testament to the lad.

He's just tweeted to nufc fans asking 'haircut or not?' this could prove it if he decides to.

 

Still think it's a blatant fake... but will still tweet back 'no' just in case :D

 

Say yes then if he gets it cut it may actually mean he's not a fake...

176 behind Shearer...

 

18 goals a season until he's 32, realistic? Granted we need to at least start getting back into the Europa League regularly in the next 3-4 years because that could add a fair few on.

Sure shearer got around 50-60 pens. That could have been his premier league penalty total though.

 

Think it was Monday Night Football's discussion about the best striker in the Premier League, so think the 56 pens is his Premier League total.

If Carroll becomes half as good as Shearer was at his best, he'll be out the door.

 

Agree with both of these.

But getting freekicks and pens just means you're good at freekicks and pens, don't see why it should detract from someone's total goals. If Carroll was great at them, he would be taking them.

 

I could possibly see an arguement for discounting penalties, but free kicks? If anything, free kick goals should held in a higher regard, much harder than your average tap in or header past the keeper from 8 yards away.
