Andy Carroll - Best Striker in the World

[Sarb]

Not his fault we paid £35m for him. Glad he's moved on without much stubborness or fuss (unlike some of the other turds we've signed over the years). Will remember him for the goal against the Bitters at Wembley though

I remember Melwood the day Carroll signed. Never seen a player as nervous. He hated being interviewed but really nice fella. Wish him well.

The horse has bolted

[Tee]

Yep, wish him all the best except against us. Obviously.

[Darkon]

Oh it felt good moving this thread away from the LFC forum

Seriously though, wish him all the luck there. Never fitted in the style after manager change, but reckon he will fit in well at WH.

Andy, thanks for everything. You just weren't good enough, and you didn't have mentality to play for big club, like liverpool is.

Good luck with WHU, hope you do OK.

Bemuses me that too, what is he did that's so bad ?

So he doesn't live up to some peoples expectations, or isn't their type of football player, not his fault.

Whoosh

[Redspin]

I think you're thinking of the FA cup game when they beat is 2-1. Carroll thought he'd scored with a header but the linesman didn't give it :

Yes but he did score our only goal in the game too

[rudedog]

What game am I remembering then? I remember distinctly him putting in a tackle in front of the Kop and them singing his name.

I don't think he warranted a fair crack under Rodgers. He would never ever have fitted into the style of play. It was a catastrophic signing, simple as. I wish him well though as he seems a decent chap.

[Maxiedge]

It's not BR's fault and it's not Carroll's fault.

This is all down to whoever thought it would be a good idea to outlay £35m on an unproven striker with alot of weaknesses in his game (as well as strengths). I'm still not sure who the main instigator was.

Anyway, both West Ham and Liverpool have a good deal now.

[Alex]

If you are saying he didn't get a fair crack under Rodgers, then yes you are right. But if you are saying he didn't get a fair chance at the club as a whole then Id dispute that. His goals record was parp.

[ronanm]

In what way was he not given a fair crack?

Practically told he wasn't wanted by BR from the outset.
