Andy Carroll In Danger Yo !

[Fabio]

There are 2 players who i look at and make me smile

Lucas and Carroll. i have an unnatural affinity towards them. Ability and everything aside, i like them and they make me enjoy watching us and for some reason make me think that we aren't a multimillion pound business, and that we are a football club.

I woudn't want to sell either

 

[Modo]

Ah yes, forgive me, teams have never scored multitude of goals by having a tall forward win the slightest of touches on the ball time & again in the box so another player can score. Certainly not Liverpool.

We simply didn't get players into the box last season, so of course the other team got it, on corners we often had just 3 players in the box.

But this is not they way we're gonna play next this season. So Carroll's aerial stats are a bit, you know, irrelevant.

 

[Jürgen4PM]

Why is everyone so infatuated with Carroll?
What has he done, I mean really?
I don't hate the guy but what is it with him that are making people go bonkers over him?

AQUIFUCKINGLANI!

AQUIFUCKINGLANI!

Coming from Modo "let's fuck off Skrtel to rely on Coates and a right back".

If he wants away (doesn't extend his contract) and we're offered £20 Million, yes I'd still sell Skrtel.

 

[Modo]

AQUIFUCKINGLANI!

Wasn't bought for £35 Million.

 

[Mystic]

Wasn't bought for £35 Million.

Just a paltry £20 million.

 

[Fox]

I just cannot understand why we are selling a striker that has just hit form and confidence for a lot less than we paid.

Fucking madness, our big problem last year was goals so why sell a striker

 

[mark1975]

Wasn't bought for £35 Million.

What's that got to do with ANYTHING, seriously? Aquilani has probably had even less good games for us than Carroll has. It's not even that you're wrong about people overrating him, it's just the sheer hypocrisy that you spend every couple of months ramming that lightweight shithouse down everyone's throats.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

This is true, but he was an absolute failure ... unlike Carroll.

 

[Fabio]

You're right

18m, 2 years out on loan (with us paying some wages as i imagine) and contributed the square root of fuck all.

Least carroll scored a couple against the blueshite

35m spent on him would suggest that you're absolutely spot on correct.

Yup and did well, while he was somewhat favoured. Can't say the same about Big Andy.

 

[Fabio]

Andy scored at wembley twice and helped us get there

Aqua did well against burnley? Hull?

One of them

Are you serious?! Aquilani had one good game against Athletico Madrid

Seriously? Carroll scored in a cup final, put a few past the blueshite and had some good games against top sides, notibly City and Chelsea. Aquilani did what?

 

[mark1975]

One of them

Don't forget his World Class performance against a Malaysian XI.

 

[Fabio]

Did he? Don't remember that game. Didn't we lose?

That lightweight shithouse will be doing the ramming soon enough, I hope.
BTW I didn't bring him up. You did in the Downing thread. Brendand4PM did in this thread.

 

[RolandG]

So is there a potential bidding war in the off with WestHam, Newcastle, Villa and even Milan looking at Carroll?

20M and Andy is yours. Bids to start at 15M.

Bids to start at 40m or fuck off!!!

 

[Fabio]

Athletico Madrid...

In the europa league? Where we lost?

 

[mark1975]

Did he? Don't remember that game. Didn't we lose?

We won 2-1 but got knocked out on the away goal when Forlan scored late. I think.

 

[Modo]

In the Fa cup final where we lost?

 

[Fabio]

Thats all i remember and care about

we lost

we didn't play well enough

i blame EVERYONE in the squad but mostly the attackers.

 

[RolandG]

Fabio is a tad optimistic. Maybe if England won the Euro's and he scored the winner we could get away with it!

 

[mark1975]

Athletico Madrid...

Just the one then?

 

[Fabio]

In the Fa cup final where we lost?

He didn't start. Aqua did i'm assuming?

Carroll got 30 minutes, scored, and was denied another by an unbelievable jeff save.

He did yeah, and scored, that's why Modo's rewriting history. I'm guessing a Europa League game against a Spanish side is worth about 5 derby appearances, in some warped logic.
