Carroll joins Bordeaux on FOUR-YEAR deal

Bordeaux have announced the signing of former Liverpool, West Ham and Newcastle forward Andy Carroll.

The 35-year-old joins the Championnat National 2 side following their relegation to the fourth tier due to bankruptcy this summer.

Carroll - who earned nine caps for England - has signed a four-year deal with Bordeaux and has the option to take up a coaching role at the club in the future.

4 year deal at Bordeaux. It’s probably a pay as you play thing. Earned enough money probably that he doesn’t need it.

didn’t they lose their professional status not too long ago?

how would that effect their ability to being allowed to pay players?

These comments come from the same place of misplaced confidence that would see a defender sprint 20 yards out of position to try to win a ball he could never win and think the goal we coneded as a result was someone else’s fault.

Andy Carroll: "When I was at Newcastle I would go home, hang out with my mates, play a bit of football and then go out, I would do a bit of everything, but I never watched football on TV. I didn’t know any of the players.

I would wake up on Saturday morning and think, ‘Who are we playing this weekend?’ I was just disinterested in it all, oblivious. I was working in training, and I knew the tactics, but until we had a meeting and I asked someone, I didn’t know who we were going to play.

When I was on the helicopter to sign for Liverpool, I was like, ‘I know Steven Gerrard, I know Carragher, but who else?’

My agent had to give me names, and I had to Google them to find out a bit more about the team. It’s a real story. It’s wrong because they’re still Liverpool players, but it’s not disrespectful. I just didn’t watch football, I didn’t know anything."

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this mindset, as long as he was 100% professional about it.

The only question is whether he was sufficiently professional, of course. I’m not sure he was, but given how young he was, that could be quite understandable. Not many people want to forgo the fun of their 20s for the discipline of being an elite athlete.

My friend has a great saying which is appropriate for this:

“Where did you get your confidence from?”

Liverpool defender involved in astonishing ‘biting’ incident after red card controversy

Liverpool defender Owen Beck was bitten during altercation that saw him sent off for Blackburn Rovers at Preston North End on Sunday


Owen Beck of Blackburn Rovers clashes with Milutin Osmajic of Preston North End during the Sky Bet Championship match at Deepdale on September 22 2024

Liverpool loanee Owen Beck was seemingly bitten during a fiery end to the Lancashire derby that saw him sent off playing for Blackburn Rovers at Preston North End. Beck, who is on a season-long loan at Blackburn, was given his marching orders two minutes from the end of the goalless draw in the Championship on Sunday after an altercation with Preston midfielder Duane Holmes.

However, during the melee that followed, television footage appeared to show the 22-year-old being bitten on the back of the neck by Preston’s Montenegro international Milutin Osmajic.

Liverpool icon bonked Katie Price ‘like a cordless drill’ going ‘bang bang bang’

Liverpool legend John Arne Riise was known for having a hammer of a left foot during his time in the Premier League and it appears he didn’t just bang in goals


Katie Price once hooked up with John Arne Riise

John Arne Riise had a hammer of a left foot - but that’s not the only time he’s been compared to a construction tool.

The former Liverpool fullback and Champions League winner, who turns 44 on Tuesday (September 24), was once referred to as a “cordless drill” by Katie Price after the pair seemingly got down and dirty in the sheets.

The ex-Norwegian international and the glamour model had a fling in late 2011 that led into early 2012, with Katie aka Jordan writing about their bedroom antics in her book, Reborn. However, she wasn’t too complimentary, with the verdict: “If I’d needed a shelving unit erected, he’d have been perfect.”
“Instead of handling me gently and passionately like most women want, he was like a cordless drill on a multi-speed setting! He reminded me of a red Bosch that I have in my garage,” the scathing model wrote.

“Bang… bang… bang, bang, bang. At one point I panicked, thinking, ‘S***, if he doesn’t stop soon, I’m going to be permanently attached to the bed!’ Mr X wasn’t having sex with me, he was having sex at me.”
