Carroll pleased with progress

The club have had an excellent start to the season in all, though they had a small blip when losing to Stoke and Tottenham.

“We have been doing well”, the striker told Liverpool’s official site.

“Obviously there was a blip against Tottenham, but the lads have been keeping together and we showed that in spirit for the derby.

“Scoring against Everton and beating them at their place is special, but you have to keep it going. The dressing room was just buzzing afterwards. Everyone was over the moon.”
