3. Andy Carroll Can Score The Goals To Keep Them Safe
If there was is worry for West Ham fans it might be wondering where the goals are going to come from, especially if their recent good defensive performances go backwards. There is no doubt that Andy Carroll is a massive player for them, but injury and suspension has meant that he hasnt featured very often. We are now in the business end of the season, and many people will feel that its Carrolls time to deliver. Its worth noting that had West Ham got their start striker out on the pitch more often; they probably wouldnt have struggled as much as they have done this season. I think most people would agree that most teams that struggle do so because of a poor defence and not having a reliable goalscorer; this is perhaps why West Ham fans should feel supremely confident of avoiding the drop. Of course, the possibility of making Englands World Cup squad is another good reason for Carroll to produce his best form between now and the end of the season.
