Andy the “unstoppable”

|

CarrollhairflyingSam Allardyce is tipping Andy Carroll to become an unstoppable force over the rest of the Hammers season!

AC’s fifth appearance of the season saw him grab two goals and provide the assist for the third in an universally praised performance.

And Allardyce said: “He is unstoppable when he gets that space.”

“Movement in the box is what it is all about, the heading ability only comes after the movement is right to give you the space to attack the ball and that happened with his two goals.

“I think when he stands a little too close to defenders and starts fighting them we don’t get the best out of him. Hopefully he continues to learn that way.”

    And so he is, I’m made up for the lad, you could see what it meant to him, Sakho and AC to start vrs Sunderland. Imagine how pumped he is going to be for that?

    Sunderland away and Leicester at home next, another 6 points anyone? Wouldn’t it be great if we were within striking distance of Chelsea for Boxing Day. Unlikely I know because they are unlikely to drop points but we can hope.

    I think Song will stay if we get top 4. He didn’t feel loved at Barcelona. He will feel loved at West Ham.
