Tsunami Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Hope at least 80% fit ‘cos he’ll be needed at the weekend. Carroll must be nailed on to start (unless he gets injured this week which is easily imaginable). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Keep seeing people say "his terrible injury record" and wonder if they've just read that somewhere and just gone with it. The lad made 35 premier league appearances last season and 30 the season before. That's 11 games hes not been involved in in the last 2 years. Hardly this horrendous injury record I keep seeing being mentioned is it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strawberry Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 This signing really make me happy. Never felt the same for any of Ashley era signing bar Ben Arfa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xLiaaamx Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 I definitely feel had someone else bought him at a reasonable price there'd be some "Just what we needed should have been all over that" going on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 A good signing, this. In modern single striker systems, you need someone who can do a bit of everything - head, shoot, lay the ball off, run with pace. He's a good overall package.

Guest reefatoon Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Will he be any good at f***ing walloping it up the pitch to a knackered Carroll 80 minutes in when we are 3-0 down? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Thought they'd do a thing with him & Fraser. Lack of multiple signings announced/paraded at once in modern football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly this horrendous injury record I keep seeing being mentioned is it. Surprised about that tbh, I assumed he was out quite a lot for the last couple of seasons. Presumably he just wasn't getting many goals then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Injury prone is probably not the right term, he's just had two massive knee injuries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Puppets Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Injury prone is probably not the right term, he's just had two massive knee injuries. ? He's missed 11 PL games in the last 2 years. Hardly injury prone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conjo Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I've never watched much of Bournemouth, but I always had the assumption, probably based on something silly like FM stats, that he was a player that relied a lot on his pace. Got to see a few matches at the end of last season and was surprised how slow he seemed to be. Didn't play particularly well either, although same could be said about their whole team. His injury record is not being questioned due to his last two seasons, but the three seasons prior to that where he missed 10, 18 and 25 matches. He'd still walk into this team though, whether it's on one or two knees. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Wasn’t really that bothered about this signing or the Fraser one yet signing both of them is quite interesting. It’ll be intriguing to see if they can get a connection going again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
