West Ham fans had no sympathy for Andy Carroll on social media after reports revealed that he would be out for at least three months through injury.
The Telegraph reported that the forward had fractured his foot, with the Daily Mail later reporting that the Hammers were concerned about his injury and had sent him to see a specialist.
The Daily Mail also reported that Moyes was planning to be without the 29-year-old, even if the specialist provided the club with a more positive diagnosis of the injury.
The 29-year-old last featured for the Hammers against Tottenham, coming on as a substitute, but the Mail’s report shared that he had an injection of painkillers to get him through the game.
Carroll apparently sustained the injury in the 2-1 victory over West Bromwich Albion, which is the only game the forward has scored in this season.
The injury is the latest in a long line for the forward since he joined the Hammers in 2013 from Liverpool for £15million, according to the BBC.
Despite being at the club for nearly five years, Carroll has only played 128 games, scoring 32 goals in the process.
It’s probably this statistic that didn’t see West Ham fans offer the forward a lot of support after reading the reports.
One supporter revealed that they loved Carroll but even they thought it was time for him to leave after hearing the news, with another calling him a waste of space.
This Is Futbol has rounded up some of the best tweets:
We’d be lucky to get anything for him, now. He’s damaged goods.

If the rumour about Carroll being out for the season is true then he needs to go, simple as that.

People who have followed my account for a long time know how much I love Andy Carroll, but even I now think the time has come for him to leave.
I just cannot take his injuries anymore.

Since we brought him in 2014 I think it was, All I have ever heard people say is “When he is 100% fit, he is a different option but he is never 100% fit. We can’t keep a player like that. In the summer, I say sell him. Don’t care if we get £10m for him, he’s not worth the hassle
