Andy Carroll is having his medical tomorrow.

Wow..Great deal for us.

In fact it is a great deal for everyone involved. Allardyce gets his ideal forward. He will thrive in that setup.

Guess LFC.TV wont have a sequel to the excellent 'Andy Carroll story'.

He never once really moaned about his time at Liverpool, which was good of him.

he will have a book out within a year. with free crayons

[danperkins]

I hope he does well. This isn't a problem of his making and despite his former lairy ways he's conducted himself well. His strengths aren't compatible with ours but hey ho. Best of ****ing luck to him.

[meffin]

Bet he scores against us next season.

2m loan fee + 2m based on add-ons (supposedly) + 15.5m sale price

Best we could hoped for out a very very bad situation.

Plus he was injured most of last season and is injured again now.


Edit: He was injured when we paid 35 mil.

He'll do (relatively) well there imo, Allardyce will play to his strengths and unlike Newcastle who are the funniest thing in football, the West Ham board seem to have a bit of ambition. Good move for him, unlike the last one he made, and a fair price on the current market for us.

They'll build a team around him. He's scored a goal every three-and-a-half games this season (not sure about the minutes), so whilst he's nowhere near our level he should do well for West Ham.

Hope he puts a couple past Newcastle and relegates them. Plus a few against United, Spurs and Arsenal would be nice.

Come on you Irons.


Good luck to the lad. Hope he does well.
