Legend says this West Ham star will benefit from Payet departure

Whilst speaking on Sky Sports Premier League Daily (via HITC), former West Ham centre back Tony Gale explained how he feels Andy Caroll will benefit now that Dimitri Payet has left the club and that Robert Snodgrass and Sofiane Feghouli are included in the team.

Caroll has rediscovered good form recently after netting four goals in his last four Premier League appearances.

Gale, who represented West Ham for over a decade, encouraged West Ham fans to feel excited as he feels Caroll has the potential to become better in light of the Payet departure.

He said, “Andy Carroll is now firing on all cylinders. He was hanging about, waiting for things to come in from Payet.

“Now he’s got Feghouli on one side, Snodgrass on the other, and he’s even going to get little passes into him, like when he scored the goal [against Southampton].”

At 28, Caroll is now at peak. He will probably reach his best possible form before he hits 30.
