Such a shame for AC. I am rarely disappointed when he plays for West Ham as he is such a handful for the opposition. Unfortunately he seems so cursed and we just cannot rely on him. Let's hope Calleri can do a job for a while.
Oh, goody. Let's all put on tinfoil hats and panic.
Calm down, will you? There have been so many rumors flying around over the past weeks and not many have proved to be right. We'd have signed Bacca, lost Payet, lost Cresswell for at least half a year and how was Kouyate on the bench last Thursday? I though he was injured. Until we are given a statement by the club there is no proof whatsoever and there is no need to panic.
In this instance, there does seem to be some truth in this rumour (at least, Sky seem to be repeating it), but there was nothing in the pre-season rumour regarding Carrol being out for months.
Given how very often rumours turn out to be false, I think there is nothing wrong with a healthy scepticism towards them.
they just said on commentary that Carroll just tweeted saying he was devastated by the injury but was still the 15-20 goals man (over his West Ham career?)

Actually pal, Luke has been proved right.
Admittedly there is a lot of rubbish written out there but the sources that Luke looks at are more often right than wrong.
Kouyate was injured before the EL game that's why he didn't start, the reason he was NAMED on the bench was to purely make up numbers, it's questionable that he had the kit on and he didn't warm up at all. They didn't risk him as it was only a minor thigh injury and he's responded to treatment hence he's played today.
Why don't you just skip by the info if you don't like it or rate it? It's that simple.
Payet out and Carroll out as previously mentioned from similar sources.

Well he isn't out there G man, I'd say he's injured and it looks like 6-8 weeks
Not really sure what your point is there. I can only think you didn't really read my posts.
I'd already said, more than once, that it looked like this one had legs.
My point was that just because this rumour turned out to be true (though weeks rather than months, apparently) doesn't mean that we should stop treating rumours with healthy scepticism.
Must admit I originally read your "Does" as "doesn't" my bad ;doh
I just get a little bit pipped when people dismiss all information, yes there are mainly some absolute whoppers (liars) out there but some deserve more credit than they get IMO
Andre Ayew suffered a rare but very serious thigh injury at Chelsea, which will take time to recover from. Andre will not have surgery and we have started the rehab straight away, working two times a day.
Typical West Ham luck that we should pick up a rare injury. Didn't Carroll get a ballerina's injury? ;hmm
For me, getting it right every now and again shouldn't give people a pass for getting it wrong an awful lot.
Getting it "wrong" also doesn't prove that they didn't get the info or that it wasn't correct at some point. Things change or information gets muddied during transmission. The clubs, players and agents are almost certainly involved in this ITK stuff, I don't think it's just loads of people trying to take fans for a ride.

I agree with you.

At least you have your answer

You are clearly referring to just one guy: I'm talking about all of them.
Yes, twice.
Sweepy - going by what was said, it makes it around 2 and 1/2 months rather than 4.
