Latest injury to hit West Ham striker

|

SnowmanAndy Carroll is out injured again with a bad back this time. Rumours spread on Saturday at Stoke that the 28-year-old was sulking after being left on the bench by David Moyes for the previous two games against Arsenal and Chelsea but we have been told he has suffered a fresh injury with his back. His name was absent from the team sheet.

Carroll has made just eight league appearances and one cup appearance this season managing just 543 minutes on the pitch with no goals or assists but one red card and three yellows for his efforts.

Carroll’s last game came against Leicester City in November which ended in 1-1 draw. He also featured as a substitute in the Watford 2-0 and Liverpool 4-1 losses.

Patience has run out at West Ham with Andy Carroll and they would accept an offer should any team be brave enough to take on the sick note this January.

      I was thinking the same cue the photo of him on holiday in Dubai with his family….

      Big Sam might come knocking in January ?

    I heard he had tripped over his wallet!

    The sooner we get rid and replace the better! But emphasis on replace! We might have the numbers but we don’t yet have the quality up top. I think Sakho will probably go in January too, and so Moyes must ensure we aren’t suddenly short if Arnie or Antonio get injured. Fingers crossed we keep Chic and he gets a bit more game time too.

    a proper discussion with Sakho is needed to get his commitment.

    Had it with Carroll.Not done a thing this season when fit and look how well we have played since he lost his place.Agreed we need a replacement but think it would be a huge mistake to sell Sakho. now Bilic has gone surely a new deal can be sorted.He is a goalscorer and deserves a run to do it.

    Nice snowman !!! Must have took ages putting that red jacket on it ? Carroll looks well though doing his centre forward drill , waving his arms about blaming everybody else instead of himself , With a bad back too and has a kid helping him in his rehab ! RR ? At least he should be fit next week by all accounts , ! 2019 !!!! Give the poppodom a free and get him out of here.
    Its like watching paint dry waiting for him to be fit to play, laughing all the way to the deposit box 😎
