Liverpool striker Andy Carroll thinks that he has not had enough playing time to have impressed the club's faithful since he joined Newcastle over a year and a half ago.

The 23 year old has endured a difficult start to life at Anfield.


"I am confident in myself that, if I am playing games, I will score goals and put myself about," Carroll said. "I cannot really do that if I am on the bench and coming on in the last 10 minutes of games.


"What I want is to start games and put myself about like I know I can. When I haven't been playing, you get low on confidence."
