Carroll's one of those footballers than you can maybe's see going bust by the time he's in his early 40's. He's had a canny career, but it should have been much better than what it was - had he looked after himself properly.

He’d have to go some to be going bust given he had 6/7 years at Liverpool and West Ham where he would have been on close to six figures per week.

Something about Big AC that’s refreshing.


How laid back he is for a striker with such responsibility?

Got his insanely big money move after a short purple patch - he’s far closer to Kevin Davies than Alan Shearer in pretty every regard tbh.  The only season he managed double figures in the top flight.  I would’ve taken what Liverpool offered - it was an insane sum of money (and still would be a hefty sum today - if we had an Andy Carroll right now I’d still be tempted by £35m.  Dalglish paying us back for Andersson, Tomasson, Pistone etc).  The problem was Ashley had no intention of allowing the club to spend it.
