Well that's two games on the bounce the lad has made me eat humble pie and i'm more than happy to do so as long as he keeps his part of the bargain . Well playyed again Mr Carroll. Hope he keeps his place against spurs as it will give his confidence another boost
UP THE PURPS !!!

simple play Suarez with Carroll or Bellamy and have Kuyt as an impact sub.

Worcester Ded I'm lost! Fk me! You now want Carroll to play and you haven't got a clue along with your neutral mates as to what he does. Fickle fkr  :D

You'll have him up for player of the season next.

Did you manage to see his goal against Wolves?  :D

Haha, with those sort of u-turns he should join the Labour party

Not a U-turn at all but we have no choice but to play Carroll as we didn't buy any replacement in the January window. I'm still not particularly thrilled at playing him but if as everyone seems to think he is suddenly kwality after 2 ok games then he needs to play, what are the options;

Bellamy - No because he is not fit enough to start every game
Kuyt - I love the guy but hell no!
ermmmmm

So you see it's not a U-turn per se, I'm not now saying he is the greatest thing of all time BUT I've never said I want him to fail either, just that I have serious doubts about him but if he can continue improving as a striker then that's just peachy.

Actually, I seem to recall his failure was guaranteed by you. Still, let's not go mad. Long way to go yet. But take my advice and put a 'buy-out clause' in your statements. Never say never  :D

Worcester Red - what are you on about now? Kuyt makes the difference against United and scores so you'll drop hip. He is just what is needed against Bale.

Seem to remember he was last seasons top goal scorer and he hasn't had that many starts this season. He was as impressive as anybody else on the pitch against United and Wolves.

kuyt went downhill on a bobsled and imo was never that good anyway just ran his socks off to compensate.
the goal he scored against wolves was a tap in and id be raging if reina was beaten at the near post like that.
look back to the first two minutes of that game and the chance he wasted when he should have put us 1 up,it was a gift and he left it under the tree.

Yeah was a nice tap in. I wanted him sold but whilst we have him and he is showing a glimmer of potential then we might as well play him, would much rather see Suarez and Bellamy upfront though but Bellamy's knees aren't up to it :-(

BTW I make up my own mind instead of following the flock.[/quote]

Lets all just hope he`s turned a corner, and its not just about him, even in recent games he`s not being given the right service, and no ones getting in and around for the knock down, still room for improvement all round.

I said ship Carroll out but then I said the same about Lucas,Babel,Ngog,Benayoun,Poulsen,Konchesky,Cole,Cisse,Curriedknackers and even Torres when he had well and truly thrown his dummy under Hodgson.A lot of them were easy calls. I've been delighted with Andy's improvement over the last couple of matches and I really hope it continues and he proves me wrong.

I hope Carroll proves me wrong too but I look at Newcastle and see that they are climbing higher than us on the table without him.
