Talk:Andy Carroll

message: I clicked on the link to the story where it compared him to Shearer, but to be fair it just says he shares his work ethic. it actually says in the same article
 "To hail Carroll as the new Shearer would be unfair
 on the young forward, who turned 20 last week."
It seems that this statement was trying to hail him as a new Shearer. come on, he's scored 7 goals, he's hardly Shearer class yet.

thread_title:  He scored one in the Carling Cup 

message: No he hasn't.
He described him as "one of, if not the best, centre forwards in the league". There's a distinct difference between a centre forward and a striker. Also, "One of, if not the best" would be more of a "Holloway has said that Carroll is possibly the best centre forward in the league", rather than "Carroll is the best centre forward in the league", since that wording suggests uncertainty and Holloway says in the rest of the interview that he hasn't come up against the likes of Torres or Drogba yet.
Please edit.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.6.89.166 (talk) 04:51, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

message: In the opening paragraph it is stated that Carroll is currently the second most expensive player currently playing in England. It is heavily believed that Sergio Aguero moved to Manchester City for £38 million, with reputable sources such as the BBC reporting this figure. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/14226198) This would make the statement untrue, either way considering the likelihood of it being unfactual, it should be changed or removed from the article as the incorrect fact contributes little to his description anyway.
