Andy Carroll joined the Girondins de for football and the project, and not for money. We all know that. But joining Bordeaux also has a lot of advantages for the England international. Starting with the proximity to England, to join his children, as he confided to So
Foot
.

“I'm reaching England more quickly now than when I was in . I take conventional flights, and the cheapest seats. I usually get there just in time to see my kids play on Sunday mornings at 11am.”

As he himself says, “living in is great, more relaxed, and the world seems a lot happier”. In terms of acclimatization, he is currently living in the house of the former left side of the Girondins, Vital Energy. He gave an anecdote.
“There is a swimming pool, I asked him how we heat it. He replied: 'But finally, the swimming season is over!'. But I'm English, I go there all year round! “.

Finally, as far as food is concerned, everything is also well established.

“The only pitfall, for the moment, is that I haven't found my favorite boxes of beans in stores, although I found them in Amiens. Yet it is the biggest supermarket I have ever seen. They have an English section, I took my ketchup, my bacon, even if it doesn't look great. I found everything except my beans. It should be the number one product in English references. Oh, and I had trouble finding chip shop vinegar too.”

Understand, malt vinegar.
