Pre-season is vital to a lot of players, it gives them time to prepare both mentally and physically for the long season that awaits.

Carroll has never really had the opportunity to get a full pre-season under his belt but he is reaping the benefits now. He showed sharpness and determination against a quality defence with his two goals against Juventus and this will only boost his confidence ahead of the new season. Carroll spoke of how he has made an effort to look after himself this summer:

“With my second goal against Juventus, I took out four players including some of my own team-mates. I used to do that in training as well which wasn’t very good for me – or our players.

“I’ve just learned from my mistakes. I haven’t listened and thought I could get away with it.

“There are a lot of people who have been trying to drill it into my head for three or four seasons now and I haven’t listened. It was about time I began to do what they have been saying.”

Carroll will go into the new season fully fit and ready which could make a huge difference to the big man’s fortunes.
