West Ham boss Allardyce warns Carroll: Still work to do

West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce has urged Andy Carroll not to get carried away with his goalscoring form.

Allardyce had some cautionary words for his big striker, as West Ham continue to be one of the surprise packages of the season.

"The two goals against Swansea are great for Andy but now he has to get even fitter, do even more training - not less," said Allardyce.

"He must not get complacent and I would say: 'You're not there yet son, make sure you continue to improve and the only way you'll do that is continue to work hard after the deserved rest all the lads will have after three tough games in a short period of time'.

"After that, though, it will be back to hard graft on the training ground, in the gym and keeping himself as fit as possible."
