Andy Carroll (now playing for Bordeaux)

[Dinho lad]

Wolf Nine Carroll

[Guest Howaythetoon]

Proves just how intellectually dumb he is!

[BlueStar]

Wolf Nine could be someone from Metal Gear Solid, were it not followed up by fucking "Carroll"

[Ketsbaia]

Beckham goes Harper Seven, Carroll goes Wolf Nine. Makes sense, the fucking moron.

[Decky]

I should be illegal to condemn your child to having such a shit name.

I look forward to welcoming Apple Twenty-Three Ameobi into the world.

[Kanj]

Clearly named him after this fucking legend:

Apparently it was supposed to be Wilf but a misunderstanding at the London registry office.

For real?

[triggs]

Carroll loves wolf cola

[Kaizero]

Wolf >>>> Wilf

[M4]

Wilf... That's even worse.

 

Straight from the same list as Bort that one.

Andy Carroll must be stopped before he does real damage... the West Ham striker leads with the arm far too often and it may lead to a life-changing clash

Does Carroll really do anything that didn't happen in every game in the 90s? Strikers would get kicked and battered and they would batter the defenders back. Fanny sport these days!

[Guest firetotheworks]

Yeah, he elbows players directly in the face. That was a red card in the '90s and probably earlier.

[Fenham Mag]

Soft southern cunts.

[Kimbo]

I think it's an exaggeration that he always does it anyway, I don't think he does it any more than Fellaini always has, and our hero wasn't exactly innocent. Anyway I'm not in favour of elbowing, but the lack of physical play between defenders and forwards is a problem IMO, even less and we're getting close to netball.

[Guest firetotheworks]

He's done it four times really badly in his last two appearances like. I agree that he hasn't always been like that, but I commented in the other games thread during the West Ham Watford match about him going full on radge recently.

[Infinitely Content]

Didn't Shearer do the same thing? Seem to remember a pretty bad one against Charlton... Suppose it comes down to intent or perceived intent though. Tough call to make for refs, but I think 'dangerous play' without harmful intent is taken more seriously in the last 5 years or so that it was previously. I'd like to think Carroll isn't going round purposefully elbowing players in the face like.

[Guest firetotheworks]

I don't think he's doing that, but he's very much leading with his arm which is the same thing by the modern laws of the game IF you catch someone. Carroll's caught a few players recently and when you see them they're pretty indefensible like.

Remarkable that as well as nearly taking someone's head off every time he plays, he's still never been as good as he was for us anywhere else.

Cabaye, Enrique, Given, Bassong, Sissoko......and a good few more.
