Gejon 2 Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 while there is no doubt that sustained good results is obtained by the teams who are able to pass the ball and play football on the deck, Andy Carroll is far from being nothing more than the figurehead of a team that plays helicopter football. The truth is somewhere in the middle here, as regards to his performances for Liverpool. And a golden rule of football is that you don't become a bad player overnight. But he was never a 35mil player in the first place. One good season in the championship and half a season in the prem doesn't make him top player which is what you expect after spending that much. Too much weight on his shoulders that fee and combine that with the poor start he's had and constantly on the bench his confidence is shot Absolutely spot on!! did well for us in the championship and on our return to the Premier league, but teams sussed him out and although he is a good player the price tag will be a weight around his neck. £12 million would of been a realistic price and Ashley would of sold him for that. He wouldn't have sold for £12m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
