Bimpy474 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Pleased for him that he got through 90 mins, doubt it will happen too often so enjoy it big man. He didn't quite make 90mins but he was excellent, pleased for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Crazy to think we actually have options upfront and could and hopefully will bring in one more on loan. Almiron behind, joelinton or Carroll. Longstaff playing number 10 works and Hendrick has played there before too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Not sure we have options really. Carroll will get injured soon and Joe is proven to be useless at scoring goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Not sure we have options really. Carroll will get injured soon and Joe is proven to be useless at scoring goals. Thought Joel did fine coming on as sub, which is where I think he should have started last season. We still have Gayle when he gets back from injury as well so we are not that bad tbh, if we can juggle the fitness issues right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 A fucking carthorse who never looks like scoring. If he wasn’t local he’d have been chased out months back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joelinton might have a bit more joy playing alongside or just off Wilson. He hardly helped himself last season but it also didn’t help that we’d play the wide men about 30-40 yards away from him, with his back to goal in his first season here. Might play a role this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 If there is any hope for Joel it will be now with pressure off of being a no 9 and playing off further forward strikers. Not saying I actually expect any improvement but he clearly is hopeless leading the line but has some technical ability so maybe can reclaim some worth in a deeper role even it is as a sub alongside wilson or carroll operating more traditionally. Still, plenty of players should be ahead of him tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or rather it isn't as damaging if he continues to do the same as he always has. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Zaius Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Even in a front two, whenever Wilson was up top he was isolated. So off the pace its painful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foluwashola Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 He's just an utter shell of the player he was a decade ago. One positive of today is that even smashed nose will surely realise pairing him with Wilson isn't going to work against any team of non-cloggers.

KaKa Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Has this guy come close to scoring since he came back? Considering he's the prototype striker for this horror ball we play, you'd think he would have managed at least a couple. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
huss9 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 rather he played CB than anywhere near the front. sorry Andy, was heartbroken when you left the first time. but you're finished mate. your legs have gone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 If he only managed 45 minutes he’ll start at Morecambe. Almiron, Joelinton & Fraser behind him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cheesy Beans Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 It’s alright, he’ll be injured soon and we’ll be forced to change it. By change it, I mean play exactly the same way but lump it up to big Joe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocker Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Yes. Never start this man again. Almiron behind Wilson. We need another striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Just think there was people that were happy with this guy coming back.... and that he signed an extension. :lol: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Just think there was people that were happy with this guy coming back.... and that he signed an extension. :lol: I doubt these people were expecting him to play a more significant role than an option on the bench. I certainly wasn't and was happy to keep him around for another season. As a starting striker though….not so much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have liked us to go out and get the 3 PL strikers that we need, but that wasn't going to happen, so Big Andy will suffice as third choice/tactical throw of the dice.

Danh1 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 To think Ryder wrote an article yesterday pre match claiming we have got the old Andy Carroll back... Hasn’t scored a goal for the club in nearly a decade and not even came close to doing so since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
