Irons explain Carroll’s Norwich injury worries

CarollFears that Andy Carroll will make a return to the treatment room after lunging into a tackle on Saturday against Norwich City have proved unfounded.

The big fella appeared to be hobbling after making the challenge but the Hammers told ClaretandHugh this evening that all appears to be well with the club’s record signing.

Everybody’s heart leaps into their mouth whenever the £17 million record signing launches himself into action but the club have explained to ClaretandHugh that all appears to be well.

Indeed our senior source was delighted about his performance as sub claiming it was his presence in the box which scared the Norwich City defence sufficiently for Cheik Kouyate to grab the late leveller.

And it would be surprising if the big man doesn’t see more action at Sunderland this weekend where his presence could worry a mistake-ridden Sunderland defence half to death.

Our source explained that all was well with the player declaring: “He seems fine. There have been no reports to the contrary.

“He has a real chance to make a proper return as with Sakho in such superb form there’s no necessity to rush him back as has sometimes been the case in the past.”

  1. I suppose every times he sneezes we are going to hold our breath,
    Not me
    As long as Sakho does not gist another witch doctor I will be smiling
    AC is like having your first born taking his first steps every time he drops on his rear you start to get up then they get back up and fall again in the next you don’t blink,
    Trouble is Andy will probably walk in to a coffee table someday soon take the skin off his knee get a rare skin virus the touch Payet and Kouyate in training and they all go down with it and miss the rest of the season,
    Then I wake up smile and go up the pub ( just another Carroll bad dream )
    Well he has lasted a week longer than Austin ( I know not funny )

  2. Ha ha nice one bubs. Very funny. coming on this site is like being drip fed small attention grabbing bite size chunks of West Ham news, relayed from some weird alternative universe where nothing is quite what it seems. 🙂 ha ha ha

  3. I half expected to see this article about Andy Carroll injury fears to carry a picture of charlie austin. Ha ha ha

  4. Haha,you had an active imagination tonight bubs,lol,love it 😀

  5. I know there was a chorus of ‘Oh know not again’ around me when he went down on Saturday – it’s his peculiar loping style of running and habit of lunging into challenges that makes you fear for his long term fitness.

  7. We’ll all be blasting out Christmas Carroll’s this year as the decorations stay up well into February . It feels different somehow this year . I’m sure Bilic does’nt need advice from Pundit’s on what we must do . It’s other teams that need advice on how to Play Us .
