Re: Andy Carroll
Andy Carroll was outstanding this evening, in a poor Newcastle side. Big, strong as an ox, unbeatable in the air and great feet. Missed a free header 6 yards out to put the Toon one up, could've been a different game if that had gone in, but that aside he looked superb. He had Johnny Evans in his pocket all night, and beat Vidic in the air - finding the runner in behind - numerous times.
I appreciate it's still too early for him, but he's the kind of striker England are crying out for.
