To be fair to Carroll, he did actually try and play football on Saturday, and the team didn't hoof it quite so much. In fact, right at the end he tried to do a fancy Suarez style move around two defenders in the wolves penalty area. It didn't quite come off but the signs are there.
Still massively overpriced for what he is and what he brings though.

I'm just plain stunned every week how much cheaper Suarez was. He should be playing for Barca or Real, I think he's that good.

Yeah, him and Van Persie if he stays fit will both be headhunted by a top European team.

So, it turns out Tevez is a complete cunt. Unbelievable. Seriously. I hope we keep him until the end of his contract now just not letting him play.

Cos they forget how to play football? United were bloody lucky to be honest basel cldve had 4 or 5 before half time. Also wat the fuck Brighton.

On the Tevez thing ive never been a fan of tevez even when he was playing for us he's always been a bell-end and always will be.

Only seems to be against united though I just dont get it especially at Old Trafford, the amount of teams that just go deep when if they played a high line they would stop em, but there you go
