Let me tell you what I think we all want to say:

"He was only signed to make the fans feel good after Torres went"

I still don't see the point of signing him, I really don't understand why we threw away £35M for him, because thats what we have done. I really don't expect more than what we have seen of him this season - I know its harsh but I don't see what we have signed here or what he brings to the team.

Before you all start giving it the big moron speech - search within your deepest thoughts and you know you have said it more than once this season - "We spent 35M on him ? - why ?"

With Gerrard and Meireles in the middle instead of Lucas/spearing, we'll see a totally different Carroll.

I'd like to think so.
 
I hate hearing that we'll see a player play well if he's surrounded by 100m worth of talent and Steven Garrard.

I'll play well and score a few if I'm surrounded with that.
 
Carroll is the type of striker that needs support and you cant really expect that from a Spearing/Lucas midfield.
 
jesus, one day lucas and spearing are quality in midfield and all of a sudden its their fault that carrolls havin a bit of a shitter
 
We overpaid by 10m. We got screwed. So be it. We still would have had to pay 25 with man city and united in the market. It's done. Let's give him half the time we gave other strikers and he'll be fine. Two mighty goals from a half fit striker in five games where we've had squad players playing. Anyone who questions him now is just a bit of a silly phone in merchant with way too high expectations.

It's not like we signed him for 50m and got a dud with 1 goal in what 15 matches...!!?

Ryan, its way too early to judge and write Carroll off.

I know. Which is why I didn't.

Thanks though.

Did anyone expect Suarez to be this good? Perhaps neither did Kenny so wanted Carroll in aswel and was prepared to pay the inflated fee. Carroll has been injured and hasn't really gotten a run of games so I can't really comment on how we're going to look next season.
