Andy Carroll joined the Girondins de Bordeaux 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 Amiens. 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 France 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.
