Guest BooBoo Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 I think Carrols a better header of the ball than Crouch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colocho Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Aye, Stronger as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BooBoo Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Crouch is much better on the floor at this moment in time, but Carroll is a beast in the air. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 If he continues to progress at the rate he did last season we could have a very good player on our hands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Just needs to curb his temper and he'll do well. We need someone lightening fast next to him whenever we can afford it and we'd have a deadly combo. I'm glad he's come out and said Newcastle are the only team for him. You listening Taylor?

Cajun Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 I might get a "Team Carroll" t-shirt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Carroll is nowt like Crouch other than his body shape. Crouch is a decent/good header of the ball but nothing more but he's got some class on the deck about him too, as well as more intelligence and experience. Carroll is far stronger in the air, and has a more powerful shot on him, but lacks the balance, floor-skill and intelligence of Crouch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Crouch would make him crease himself before he could get to the K in K.O Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
huss9 Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 bit worrying that from hughton - his analysis of crouch is completely inaccurate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madras Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Crouch is much better on the floor at this moment in time, but Carroll is a beast in the air. i'm not sure about that. crouch's close control is better but carroll put some balls in from out wide that we'd have wanked over had ginola put them in and crouch could never even hope to do.

jdckelly Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 I'm not one to overly get concerned about squad numbers (except for daft ones like a cb wearing 10 etc) so dont care if he wears it tbh, hes is the best candidate for the jersey but at the end of the day its only a number on a shirt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Would mean more to him than anyone else in the squad and it looks like it's going to be that way for a while. It's a huge boost for him like it would any local lad playing upfront for us and we should expect even more heart, effort and commitment from him. Another thing is it's something money can't buy, and if he acts up again the number can easily be removed from him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that 'magic' went when Roeder gave the shirt to Martins. Bizarre decision. Nahhh... Criteria: / Currently striker performing well enough/scoring enough goals to earn the upgrade / Big money signing Martins was no different to Shearer really going by point B, though Shearer had already proven to be an unreal goalscorer. Oba's goal tally for us overall wasn't bad anyway. This shit matters aiiyt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
