When you consider all the summer signings you will be forgiven for thinking that Dr King Kenny is building the team around Carroll (I have already forgiven myself). I too believe that most the signings we made after we bought Carroll were meant for us to bring the best out of Carroll: the player that is said to be unstoppable when he gets his groove on and fully fit. And if our very own Dr believes so, then who am I not to?
Some of my mates on Twitter believe that if we had not signed Carroll we would not have signed Downing, Henderson or Adam this summer. Especially if Torres had stayed at Liverpool, then we may have signed Mata and some other player. They believe we did not sign Mata because Dr Dalglish and Comolli thought Mata would not be able to swing the ball in like Downing and they believe Mata is the type of winger that likes to cut in and not hug the line.
So if our eventual singings were brought in to suit Carroll’s game, then that would mean the total amount of money spent towards Carroll would be 79 million! That is 35m plus 20 (Downing) plus 16m (Hendo) plus 8m (Adam).
All this should mean that we are going to have many goals from Carroll this season, because the players that the Doctor (Dalglish) ordered are exactly the players that Carroll should thrive on. All this gets me excited. And Carroll should have had one goal already this season, but that silly referee decided to rule out his goal. I am confident that many will come from the young lad.
I would never want to be In Carroll’s shoes, that is, knowing that Dr King Kenny is building Liverpool around me. Just playing for Liverpool FC should be scary enough, but being the present and future of such a great club should be a mighty task. And knowing that most of the players that were bought, were bought to make it easier for him to score could put a sizeable amount of pressure on Carroll, wouldn’t it?
Thankfully this is Carroll we are talking about, the English giant. Our Doctor has already backed him to score a lot of goals and so have many respected opinion leaders. Other players too have backed him to be prolific this season, Jose Enrique being one of them. What is most important is that Carroll himself has backed himself to score many goals this season.

Should build the team around Suarez. We played better the other day without Carrol. Suarez needs a foil to play with such as Forlan for Uraguay with fast inter play, Kuyt or Maxi Rod?
Stupid article, first Lucas was the scapegoat until he won – quite rightly – player of the year, then Henderson was getting hammered for no reason at the start of this season but a great performance and goal yesterday got the critics off his back, So now its back to Carroll – give the kid a chance! Hardly started his Liverpool career and idiots who no nothing about football, liverool, and what kenny is trying to do. Sorry, but f**k off – u know nothing!!!
yes…..those moron who doesn’t know about LFC , please stay out from our team!!! Go support the devils , since they had score eight goals..pass the goons.
Yes we’re wrong… Carroll is useless
Sell him back… buy cheaper striker who can hold the ball for 10 seconds…
Last session on arrival of Surez with pass and move stretgy liverpool performed nicely. Introduction of Carrol in last two games change all this progress. Actually, Every player was directed to supply to carrol but carrol proved their null and void. Every one was working hard to make move and on reaching goal mouth starts tracing carrol to his the ball into goal. Everyone lost their own creativity. Everyone was not aiming goal but was aiming Carrol to deliver. result was losses to Villa and totahem. This mistake repeated again and again by Dilgish during pre session the result everyone knows. Even the result of sunderland was distressing. It Surez Kuyt combination would have tried instead of Carrol I am sure we would have trunched sunderland by 3.0 easily. Our is a touch pass and move type of beautiful game on the ground. in this game we have masterly. in air we are loosing control and masterly and stand parellel to our opponent and sometime weaker. Carrol is definativly a bad investment to prove it correct we must not spoile our beautiful natural game. Carrol is a young player give him training and also train him to adjust hisself in this type of game. Header would be his extra potential and after trainig with his power and powerful left foot we will become a diterent. Until them let him sit on the bench untill he did not adjust himself in accordance with the team set up. A team depending on one two or three player never wins games until they are not playing as a well knitted team.
Andy strong in the air? Are you sure? He cann’t even scored goal in the air! Good left footer? WHich Area he good at? Left foot scored goal, passing or tackling? Nop, none of them i think. Well, still early to pick on him we all know that. But I only see him as a giant to treaten Opponent’s defence (make defender tired)but other to score goal.
ur clueless buddy^^
give the kid some time, people are saying his hopeless when he’s only 22. as kenny saaid, we bought him for the long run, not for 10 games. i dont expect liverpool to keep starting him for now, since they thrashed bolton without him. but in the future, suarez and carroll will be a menace, and will become the best forward line in the epl.
Yes..you’re absolutely right!He should be given a season to prove on.
How come those moron ,clueless buddy had no clue bout’Liverpool Football Club.Aren’t they watching rubby or soccer..
The biggest problem with Carrol isn’t that he is useless. Its the way he CHOOSES to play. I don’t know if Kenny has told him to play differently yet, but Carrols style is to back into a centerback and call for the ball from wide areas. No wonder we start playing long to him! It probably isn’t even his fault. He’s probably been coached for years to play like a big English Center forward. Hopefully he can learn to control the ball on the ground and move around a bit more.
I really hope he has more in his locker than supposed aerial prowess. You don’t even need height to score with your head, just look at Tim Cahill.
Ourkop, Who are you?? a bunch of teenage mancs??? Get off his back you tossers.
yaa…that’s right…kinder-garden and school children talk! Know nothing about football.
sack kenny and give akash the managers job and he can build a team aroun bellamy.
Hey you..moron dude!Go support the stupid Manure team. We don’t this noncense thinking!!
Ok,AC hasnt scored yet,he dosent move fast, he dosent dribble,and is lazy.what about his replacement at celski,with all this agitations and foreingn effect he still hasnt scored a goal this season,Zeko was in mancs and didnt do much last season a day will come for him and by Gods grace he will shine.i love and pray for liverpool daily please do same.
Liverpool fans are acknowledged to be among the most knowledgable supporters in the world and the constant rehashing of the headlines of the pro ManUre, anti LFC, hacks by so called Liverpool supporters is embarrassing.
These so called supporters need to grow up, learn about football, the history and traditions of our beloved LFC and what it means to be a TRUE Liverpool supporter, then they SHUT THE F*** *P.
Yes!!!! for those who think like kinder-garden & school children.Better go support the Manure devils.
Yeah, for those who think like kinder-garden & school children… better go back to kindergarten and learn spelling and grammar.
I wouldn’t put pressure on him.
Dzeko didn’t have the best start at City but now he is scoring.
In many ways I consider Carroll to be better than Dzeko, almost in every way except when it comes to his experience.
Torres was worth 50 mil. and I still dont think Chelsea wasted their money, and Torres is older so he has less time to prove his worth.
We shouldn’t be expecting too much, Suarez is on form now and Carroll’s goals will come.
Thank you…People, give it some time. The modern internet fan has no patience or sense of perspective. One guy has us buying VAN PERSIE…get a life! People were laughing at Dzeko, but look at him now. As long as we’re getting results then it is fine. I agree with you people need to stop moaning and get behind the team.
Cool as ice!This is what we call YNWA..Long Live LFC.We’ll always behind you!No matter it is Tsunami or hurricane!We shall be patient and enjoy our Kopites football team performances. Time will tell.
we just have to be careful in our comments,though Carroll is not finding it rossy now in Liverpool`s team but i still believe he has something to offer,play kuyt or Maxi along side super Suarez,let us play Carroll from the bench if we have secured a win from any match,because he is too slow for the team,Suarez is a 1-2 playing type of player so he needs a very fast partner,Gerrard would have been the best option if he is fit and play Mereiles behind them,we need one more winger and a natural all round striker.King K Dalgish is the best,Liverpool for life
Guys, get behind the team (that’s from KK to all those in the squad ). For god sake get a bloody ball & go have a kick about in the park. Don’t embarrass us (COLLECTIVELY), leave it to Kenny, he is the manager.
GET BEHIND THE TEAM, ENJOY OUR WIN & LOOK FORWARD TO THE NEXT MATCH.
SHOW & BE DIGNIFIED IN YOUR COMMENTS ( of course you will always get the odd manure prick commenting as a Liverpool fan ).
A LONG HARD & TOUGH SEASON LIES AHEAD.
SUPPORT THE TEAM – SUPPORT THE TEAM.
REMEMBER WHEN WE ALL WALK AS ONE WE NEVER WALK ALONE.

In our heart, Liverpool are the best!In history and present!
This article and most of the comments pretty much sum up everything that is shit about the internet.
Seriously.. This arcticle appears to have been written by a 7 year old, with no sense of the game, or what it is to be a real fan. What are you thinking attempting to claim that we are building a team around Andy Carroll? That couldnt be further from the truth, he’s barely played since we bought him. And why oh why, after watching 2 excellent all round team performances against the gunners and Bolton do you feel the need to make this stupid kind of overly-crytical, mis-informed nonsense?
