Is anyone else fed up with Andy Carroll? I do think he is an asset when fit and playing well but how often is that? Bilic criticised the way he had been rushed back from injury in the past and said it wouldn't happen again but even under the new regime he is still always injured. Should we cut our losses and get rid in the summer?

id have got rid of him last summer definatly need to at least try to get rid of him this summer the problem is that who is going to want an injury prone striker that's on huge wages?
he good as an impact sub but can't see him starting as we have to completly change our tactics and even if he was fit we can't afford to pay the wage he is on for someone who is just on the bench.

Personally I think he should be dumped to the highest bidder in Summer (even if it means taking a massive hit, let's cut our losses and get rid and get someone who wants to play for the pride of the Claret and Blue) . Valencia should accompany him cause he spends most of his time throwing himself on the floor when he could be doing a lot better. its also about time we started targeting Strikers that ARE ACTUALLY STRIKERS and CAN get us goals and stay fit. Go Get GIGNAC, REMY or BONY. A striker that's big, powerful and bullies defenders and scores goals
AC is rinsing us and we carry on paying him for not appearing. Now he has a hamstring injury. I believe he doesn't want to be here anymore so let him have his wish.

I don't get it I've said it for ages I wouldn't even try sell him as don't think anyone is that stupid to buy him I would just terminate his contract absolute waste of space if he were a race horse he would of been put down long time ago.

i agree with what being said but to let him go means paying his contract up which means eating into the wages budget for season which would affect the ffp rules we have to wipe our mouths on this one.
if we are going to pay him might aswell play him when we can not ideal I know.
personally don't think we are going to be able to keep him fit 4 a run of games.

If he stays a westham he has to be a lat 10 mins bring on player like Owen was a united.

I'd much rather play Manchester United in the cup that Arsenal, Chelsea or our bogey club Everton!

Is it a coincidence that both times AC has returned to the side (this season and last) we have stopped winning!

First post from me, been an interested reader of Ironmikes posts for a while. Don't think Barton is attached to QPR in any way now so can't see how that would influence the signing of Austin. In my opinion we need to get out there and get a decent goal scorer, if we pay a little more that the going price then so be it, we won't win anything without a goal scorer and can't just rely on Sahko with his dodgy back.

We seem to have some of the most injury hit strikers in the Premiership - If we are to remain in the Top 5 we need to get in a reliable goal scoring striker ASAP I know it sounds wrong to moan but this is the most exciting time at West ham since Cottee and MacAvennie tore defences apart!
