Carroll A Battling Inspiration?

Last updated : 21 January 2009 By Footy Mad - Editor
Blackburn boss Sam Allardyce hit out at Carroll for his weekend challenge on Chris Samba, and the 20-year old gave want-away winger Charles N'Zogbia a taste of what many would love to do the troublemaker in a training session.

Newcastle have played down the incident with the Frenchman, but Allardyce has a bee in his bonnet.

Allardyce: "I thought it was a bit nasty the elbow.

"It was an elbow from young Andy Carroll which was, I think, a bit naughty.

"Chris can't see through his right eye, it looks like he's gone 15 rounds with Ricky Hatton at the moment.

"I just hope that the eye socket is intact because it looked a nasty injury that one."
