My Take
Andy Carroll is a throwback I can't help rooting for. At 193 cm, he was the kind of old-fashioned target man who won games in the air through sheer physical force, a style that fell out of fashion as the game grew more technical. Injuries robbed him of the career his early Newcastle and Liverpool form promised, yet he kept turning up. Learning he now plays and assistant-manages in the lower leagues only deepens my respect: this is a man who simply refuses to stop playing the game he loves. There's something quietly admirable about that stubborn devotion.
