Everton boss David Moyes feels Liverpool striker Andy Carroll can make a big impact at the Euros for England.

Moyes is an admirer of Liverpool's No.9 and he has backed the striker to trouble opposition defences during the tournament.

"Until Wayne Rooney is available for the final group match against Ukraine, the lead role in Roy Hodgson's attack looks likely to be taken by Andy Carroll and tournament football might just suit England's latest No.9.

"In international games players can open your eyes. Carroll scored four Premier League goals last season and might seem a throwback but some big strikers who don't fit the look of an international player have ended up being key men for their countries. The one I always think of is Jan Koller.

"You had a Czech Republic team full of skilful footballers such as Pavel Nedved and Patrik Berger and then what seemed like a big diddy hanging about up front.

"Yet Koller, who was nearly 6ft 8in, turned out to be a serious player and his record for the Czechs was incredible."
