Carroll looks an absolute donkey. They've haven't played to his strengths but he hardly seems talented. Proved he is 'tall' though by clearing a few corners, but done sod all at the other end.
Wow Jones and now fucking Kelly before Micah.... seriously?

The commentator mentioned that Micah refused to make himself available and that's why Kelly was called up. Mystery (from another post) solved !

The midfield got the ball and it seemed the rest just left them to it and moved away hence a hopeful pass hence we lost the ball.

Same for the last 4 years isnt it Doug? No effort, no movement, no desire, no pace, massive gaps between def, mid and attack.
We play like that all the time, it use to be that Ashley Cole appeared to be the only one making any effort.
We really really need to ditch all the over 28's and start fresh. Take a hit for a few years but tailor make a team capable of scaring the rest of the world with pace and effort.

I'm convinced AJ can play as a roaming midfielder like Nasri/Silva if Bob lets him. He is a quality footballer who can thread a pass through from deep just as well as they can & has a better shot than either.
Andy Carrol, with a proper partner, is capable of doing the job required up front .
I can almost understand Downing, even though he's shite, getting a game in an attempt to feed Carrol but what the fuck Phil Jones & Henderson are doing in that squad, God only knows. If they played for Birmingham & QPR they wouldn't get a fucking sniff.
