KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum wish people would stop slaying andy carroll

Come on you critics of Andy Carroll , do we have to go down hard on him just because of his inflated price tag? He's not had the chance to have a full season yet. And when we signed him , he was not even 100% yet. But he did show glimpses of what he can do especially in the game against Man City. Would you imagine if he can keep up that form for most of next season? I would love to hear from the same critic what he had to say when the same Carroll scores for fun next season. At least give him the pre-season and the whole of next season before passing any judgement on him.

People should see the faces of all the Newcastle fans when Carroll signed for us. I can say that nearly all are very disappointed and devastated as they know they have lost their main man for Newcastle( I dare say that ) due to the fact his goals are the main reason why they are promoted bal to the Premier League. So be excited rather than going down hard on him.


YNWA...

again I am not slating Carroll, as someone posted above said i like carroll but dislike the fee. I agree carroll needs to sort his head out of the pitch too

carroll did not put a 35 mil price on himself so we cant blame the price on him if any1 should its newcastle not andy im glad we spent it hicks and that other bloke wud of got us two strikers for bout 5 mil each so think about it

a fit, injurie free Carroll, with no distractions off the field, in his personal life, is one hell of a player and he will only get better n better.

£%m, will look like peanuts in acouple of years time because him and suarez will be awesome as a partnership. no defence or defenders in the world, will want to play against these 2.

so all u carroll haters, just [oops] off and support abc united.

i am just praying that KD in the next couple of weeks, signs two class wingers ie sanchez or hazard, plus Turan or A Johnson and watch saurez, carroll score 50+ goals next season.

Lots of teams spanked us when Roy was in charge = it doesn't mean we should sign their strikers.

You can't call people "t1ts" because YOU think carroll will score 20+ next season. He has to score the goals first!
The jury is definitely still out on him regardless of whether we paid £35k or £35m.

I'd like to see him succeed but I have a feeling he will be another duncan ferguson ie not many goals but still popular with the fans - possibly for non-footballing reasons. Only time will tell.

Why would people like him for non footballing reasons other than being a ponytail enthusiast?

Yes I think you put your finger on the key point there Menace, If we sign two class wingers the price paid for Carroll will be irrelevant as he is almost certain to bag a load of goals given the right service . However if we fail to sign class wingers then I cant see Carroll doing too well with balls down the middle. Then the cost factor will become a major issue. Cant wait for the new season, It really is an exiting time to be a LFC supporter!

totally agree
