I want 2 minutes of my life back.  

I was supposed to go to Vegas with my friend this weekend....now I wish I did

imagine getting a pic with carroll in that costume

Who cares? Honestly. Footballers have lives too. They're on holidays as of now. Let him party it up.

Normally I'd agree, but he has a history of his partying interfering with his play, so it's not what you wanna see right after you spent 15m+wages on him.

Also he looks like he's rolling face

Don't shoot the messenger. I'm just bringing in the news. In fact, I'd love to party with Carroll one day. However, I do agree with Stevig, he's got history of drinking and partying interfering with his play.

Carroll  

If someone thinks that a night out in June is going to make him a worse player for next season then good for you  

Is he wearing a cape?

so what? he's on vacation, he can do whatever the hell he wants. This dude spends like 9 months working in football let him have some fun for 2 weeks

I'd be concerned if he wasn't partying in Vegas.

Vegas>>>>>>

At one point he has on a chipmunk suit... but you're worried about the cape?

Let him have his fun in the summer (as long as it's legal). If he continues once the season starts, then you can criticize him.

Honesly, I didn't watch the entire thing

That wasn't directed exactly at you. It was to everyone, really. Drinking whilst on holidays is fine. He dedicates 10 months of his time on football...

The only person that suggested that was Capello. There were heaps of reports saying he was drinking whilst he was at Liverpool. Which was denied by not only the club, and Dalglish himself, but Carroll as well. Not too sure if you would consider that 'covering up' but I highly doubt it.

And this was before he's initial transfer to West Ham. So it was before they spent 15m + wages on him. He was on holidays. This shouldn't be news.

I was actually referring to before we bought him, when he was at Newcastle. Reports indicated from Liverpool that he had grown up and calmed down a little, and since this looks a little like a relapse into partying, that's why it would scare me if I was a West Ham fan.

That being said, if it's just him having fun on holidays and he comes to camp ready to work, I'd never hold it against him. I agree 100%, he should be allowed to do what he wants on holidays as long as it doesn't interfere during the season. It's just that players with certain reputations get less of a free ride than those who have never had problems before.

I also hadn't realized the video was old, so that definitely changes the situation.
