Some guy.... Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 What a terrible feeling. Good ol' Andy Carroll, popped in a casual 21 goals in 17 matches before being injured for a month. But he's back now, scoring within 4 minutes! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWaRFeGa Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I can usually deal with it. Got plenty of back-up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaToon Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I got a solid midfielder on loan for 3 months, and he promptly injures himself in his first match with us. Diagnosis? Out 2-4 months. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Some guy.... Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 That would be terrible. It turns out 32 year old Andy Carroll still has some more left in him. Back from injury and now once again scoring a goal a match. Including finally breaking my record of 4 goals in a match which Eddie Johnson set back in the FA Cup 4th round 2007-08 against Leeds.

Stevooo Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 im honestly delighted for you because for me strikers + injury = sale i have a little rant comming on heres an explanation of my sorrow and why i get terrified everytime a striker gets injured. got patch 8.02 BTW wayne rooney - every 1 knows free scoring rooney who scored like 40 goals in 27 games got injured at the end of the first season for 3 months came back now avrages 19 odd goals a season klass jan huntelaar- finshed anything and everything for me when he first arrived got 30 odd goals a season and was super clinical needless to say got injured for 3 months now in his prime hes getting 20 goals a season sergia augero - finished top scorer in spain bougt him for £45,000,000 and looked like he would live up to this fee scoring 15 goals in 6 games but got injured in a champions league match came back struggled to fnd the net a month on when his form started to improve for some reason all his stats dropped and he now resembles a faster version of a average frazier campbell TEvez - well erm never been clinical honest to god each striker got injured for 3 months (not all at the same time)over the course of 4 seasons and is a shadow of what he ue to be yet leioni messi is injured for 6 moths comes back for his first game in a champions league game against me and runs riot :@ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Some guy.... Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 Yeah, the only player who's come back as a shadow of their former selves was Cissé. Carroll is back to his free scoring ways after being out for 3 months. He's back to the top scorer this season, but then again it might be because my team is in a bit of a transitional phase right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lacoste8030 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 It happened to me with chelsea, my best layer C. Ronaldo got injured and i was like oh **** what am i going to do, but i put J.cole in and since ronaldo has returned after two months and cnt get back in the side as joe cole is playing fantastic.

cliff7197 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 I normally see an injury to a top player as a chance to give a youngster a runout. It gives them valuable experience and aids their development no end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliff7197 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 In fact, that's what I'm doing now. I lost my second striker to injury for 3 months, a guy who consistently bangs in 15-20 per season. I gave a young kid a chance and he's rewarded me with quite a few important goals, including a winner just scored against Man United as I typed this very post.
