Andy Carroll last night launched a scathing attack on Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley for selling him against his wishes to Liverpool!

The England striker said that he had been "pushed out the door" by Ashley ... according to the Independent newspaper.

Carroll, whose fee broke the record paid for a British player, said: "I'm gutted to be leaving my hometown club, I was told to go.

"I didn't want to leave that's why I signed a five-year deal [with Newcastle in October]. I was pushed out of the door."
