Tom Carroll 16:57 - Oct 21 with 10768 viewsGaz_M

What a poor season he's having. He was obviously very, very limited in what he can do based on last season's evidence.

But this year he's struggling big time. Struggling to keep the ball unless it's a sideways pass, no imagination, no right foot, and his set pieces are f*cking farcical. Needs to pull his finger out.

A championship player.

I've seen a few people claim "he was a creative player at Hull". I'm not sure where it has come from because the stats don't suggest that.

We were all impressed when we sold Jack Cork for £8m. We then went out and signed another Jack Cork for twice the cost.


Perhaps we should have not sold cork and spent on Clucas and moved Cork forward as the Siggy replacement and thus saved ourselves 6m (16-10).

Whatever stats Dan Altman was looking at when he concluded £16m was a fair price for Clucas, I would be very interested to know.

Perhaps if we bring his name up enough, the talentless 'journalists' who read this forum for ideas for stories daily will bring him to task in a paper.

What we should have done is signed a proper attacking midfielder to replace Sigurdsson.

In fairness, I thought he was excellent last week. One of the worst games I’ve seen him play since signing permanently today.

Yep. I thought one of Sanches or Clucas would be playing there, but apparently not. The gap between our defensive seven and our attacking three in every single game is embarrassing.

Can't Clucas play that position? He was creative for hull.


Was he? Or did we just overpay for a useless ginger minge just cos he’s got a left foot.

He wasn't excellent last week though. He put in a lot of effort closing down but that was about it.

Simply not good enough at this level but that could also be said about a lot of our midfielders. If it's Carroll,clucas, ki or fer a lot of posters say the same they are not good enough.

He excelled himself today with the sheer awfulness of his dead ball delivery. The winning goal came directly from his inability to beat the first man from a free kick in their half, from which they broke away and scored.

He is a trier, but he's just not good enough.

There's people around me groaning and shouting for him to move away from the ball at set pieces now it's got that bad.

Oh,..Dave, what's occuring?

I still have high hopes for Carroll but obviously they need to take him aside and really drill him on set pieces and dead ball situations. the reason Gylfi was so good, was because he worked his socks off learning how to deliver deadball against doing anything else good.

though to be fair he wasn't the worst on set pieces today. I don't think I've ever seen a corner as bad as the one Sanchez skyed.

Does anyone think it’s possible to have what appears, a whole Premier League squad who doesn’t contain a single player who can remotely produce a quality delivery from set piece? We’re talking about hugely paid professionals here. Hard to swallow!

Tom ‘David Silva’ Carroll & Kyle Naughton should be nowhere near the starting line up of a PL side.

Both fuking shite


Sorry Whilst Naughton has come in for some correct critiscm in the past but to be fair of late he is one of our better players

Siggy was a dead ball specialist. He also had someone to aim for.

Exactly right.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Oh I can absolutely deny he was creative for Hull.

He has played 43 games in this league and has 1 assist.

In the 43 games he as created 2 goal scoring chances.

In the 43 games, he has only played two through balls.

Creative he certainly is not.

You can say what you like about Clucas, but he's only ever been offside once in the Premier League.

Everyday above ground ... Is a good day! 😎

Yeah I agree, naughton has certainly improved this season, though in an ideal world I'd have liked a better option in the Summer. But in no way should he be getting sh!t on here tonight.
Carroll was as he has been this season to date, a shadow of the player that came to us in January. All i see now is the old Carroll who came on loan 2 years ago. He desperately needs time out to re-group and find his mojo again.
I'd have liked to have seen Clucus given a go on the left side of midfield, where I've previously read is his preferred position. Its time to step up and prove that we DIDNT just spunk away £16 million, as has been suggested.
Also as lots have stated, Mesa needs to be starting or at very least on the bench. Leon was completely lost out there today. Not knocking him, just today wasn't his day.
Dyer, who I am certainly no fan of, gave us more in 20 mins than Narsingh gave in the initial 70.

What worried me the most today, was the lack of creativity available on and off the pitch(bench). It's going to be a long hard season again I fear. Thank Foook their seems to be at least 3 or 4 teams worse than us.

We need to try someone else on set pieces that's for sure. Truly atrocious.


Carroll looks like a lost boy out there. Lightweight and no bottle, confidence shot and happy to blag a living playing sideways.....can anyone think of a pass he’s made that played someone in? And if he’s picked to play wide, then why was he coming inside for Sanchez to go wide when he’s got the speed of a milk float ffs! Clements midfield selections are bonkers.

The ball for Abraham in the first half last week.

There's very few players currently in our first team squad who aren't capable of doing at the very least a decent job in the Premier League given a quality system and coaching setup to work in. I find this "stealing a living" and "Championship at best" nonsense utterly tiresome.

We saw last season that Carroll can do a job in the PL. Why people are so desperate now to claim otherwise despite plenty of evidence to the contrary is beyond me.

What we need is a definite system and coaching setup for them to work to. Thus far we've been completely lacking that this season.

Tom Carroll must be giving half his wages to PC, he's so shit he wouldn't get in the under 23 side.

PC needs to F off and take Carroll, Sanches and the board of directors with him.

I agree. There is no system whatsoever. I hate to say it, but I'm seeing Bob Bradley in Clement's approach to our midfield-changing it every week and hoping something works. There doesn't seem to be any thought or logic driving it.
