I dont think he was excellent and remember he was playing against Brighton who are hardly the greatest team...
Just accept that he is awful
have a word, lpool were playing a championship side ..
when carroll develops a half decent first touch and good movement let me know
Carrol = 2 goals in his last 3 starts
Suarez = 2 goals in his last 2 starts
Its time for these two to change our luck infront of goal. I was impressed today with the way we mixed up short passing, with long balls into Carroll.
He's been playing well for quite a while now! Realizing his potential! Keep starting him and we'll see why we paid £35 million for him!
Just accept that he is awful
If it makes YOU feel better then carroll is a really awful player....now get back to your championship board
even a torres shot of confidence is 10x the player carroll will ever be..because torres has ability....something carroll has only in his wettest dreams
Carroll wouldnt even start for us and you paid 35m for him
even a torres shot of confidence is 10x the player carroll will ever be..because torres has ability....something carroll has only in his wettest dream
Im afraid injuries have robbed torres of that ability.....that is a fact!

of course he wouldnt!! Maybe that is why you are in the championship and we are not
Love the hate for Carroll still from rival fans.
chelsea players not passing the ball to him when he is in decent positions and a toxic dressing room has far more to do with it than injuries
Carroll was good today, developing into a good buy albeit a little pricey but who cares? Not our money.
Great performance, good game.

West Ham are in the championship, why you on a thread tagged Football,Premier League, Liverpool?
A fabulous finish by Big Andy. I hope he gets a run of games along with Gerrard and Suarez. Hopefully it'll bring the best out of him

oh come off it. how long does this excuse run for?
He looks a shadow of the player he was...they bought mata to pass him balls and mata is outscoring him.
Age is against him now and im afraid we will never see the torres that gave vidic nightmares ever again
Chelsea just have a habit of ruining strikers careers

Torres reminds me of sutton. clinical striker before he goes there....flopped after that and never the same player
Great to see Andy on score sheet, nice assist for Suarez too, hope he starts v Cardiff and then again v arsenal, with the injuries they have the defense will be make shift so Andy could have a field day.
Big Andy
i don't think carroll is a confidence player, he is slowly adapting to our play and the rest of the team are slowly adapting to him. he is never the sort of player to do something on his own but reliant on others providing him with something he can use.
take the cross he scored from today. it is one of the very few times this season downing has
a) put in a quick first time cross before the defenders get set, and not cut inside
b) the cross wasn't skied 10 feet above everyones head, and
c) wasn't tamely hit at the head of the closest defender.
he needs to do this far more regularly and if he does carroll will score a lot more. we also need someone to do the same from the right as kuyt can't cross past the first defender either.
Carroll had a decent game but as others have said it was against a championship side.
There have been signs in the last few weeks that he is getting a bit more confident and a decent display against another championship side in a cup final would see his confidence soar.
Don't think he will ever be prolific as neither he nor Suarez seem to have that killer instinct but definitely getting better
the same from the right as kuyt can't cross past the first defender either.
Dirk got a lot of assists for Torres crossing from the right when Torres was in his prime for us, but haven't seen the same quality of delivery from dirk since.
