Tiresias Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 He is more physical than most, I wouldn't say he was immobile at all but was never impressed with his ground work. Even that goal against Liverpool seemed a little scuffed, it certainly wasn't a cracker. He never seemed to have that in his locker while he was here, may have smashed some amazing goals since he left but I haven't seen them. He is unplayable when there is a lot of decent balls going into the box but that is about it imo. I don't disagree with that but you can build a squad where you get a lot of decent balls into the box and then bob's your uncle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 He's a good asset for a team that's hoping to stay in the Premiership, but his movement isn't good enough for any club that's aiming for the European places. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incognito Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Didn't look out of place at International level which to me means he isn't shit. He isn't immobile either, when fully fit of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpal78 Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 It wouldn't surprise me one bit. He absolutely loves us and looks totally uncomfortable playing against us. What a joke of a post. The Carroll worship continues. Not only are his technical skills (of which he has very little) exaggerated, now he's deliberately not scoring against us because "he loves us". Ya that's why he left us for Liverpool! You've had some idiotic posts but this one tops it all! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I've missed you, man. Carroll worship. You can't ever say anyone's better than any of our regular starting Xl on here without being accused of being a fanboy. It's the ultimate irony.

Yorkie Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I bet the guy regrets leaving us and chasing the money. I've got absolutely no sympathy for a guy who had the exact same dream as me, achieved it, then threw it away for fucking Liverpool FC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oakie Doke Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 and not even a good Liverpool FC. He left us for a team being built around Jay Spearing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Bias against who? I don't even dislike the bloke - I was surprised people booed him today as I see no reason to hold a grudge against him. I was actually saying to my brother at the game that I feel a little sorry for him. He just isn't very good. That's just fucking stupid. Rewatch the Aston Villa game where we beat them 6-0. That game was as complete a centre forward display as I've ever seen. On his day Carroll can be absolutely unplayable. He's just been ravaged by injury, he'll never find any kind of form again until he can play consistently for a 6 months or so. The only reason I wouldn't have him back at SJP is because of his injury record, nothing to do with his ability at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what I'd say if the club said "Liverpool have offered us £35m and we want to sell you, so off you go" but we've been here before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Guy put in a transfer request. But aye, this isn't worth revisiting I don't think. He's probably fucked and I think he's a dick. That's my immovable opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got absolutely no sympathy for a guy who had the exact same dream as me, achieved it, then threw it away for f***ing Liverpool FC. He may and he may not. He's set up for life with the two moves. He might not have gotten that in 10 years with us. He's also probably thinking that had he not been sold he could have struggled to get another contract with us based on the amount of injuries he's picked up.

Yorkie Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I struggle to believe that his contract at Newcastle wouldn't have set him up for life, like. Let's say he was on something 'modest' like £30k a week. In ten years that's over £15m. Pure greed. Obviously, he's one of hundreds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carroll was good against a poor Villa side. Any more examples of Carroll being 'absolutely unplayable'? Any against good defences? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallace Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Carroll has always needed loads of games to look a player again after injury. And he is yet to play well against us with either Liverpool or West Ham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugoinufc Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 It wouldn't surprise me one bit.
