Andy Carroll mocked by Poland legend

Carroll mocked by Poland legend

Poland legend Zbigniew Boniek has insisted that his grandson moves better on a football pitch than Andy Carroll.

England face Poland on Tuesday evening with Carroll in contention for a place in the starting lineup, but Boniek has revealed that he is not a fan of the 23-year-old striker.

Boniek told The Telegraph: "My eight-year-old grandson Mateo moves better on the pitch than Andy Carroll.

"Mateo is very good at golf and tennis. He has better co-ordination."

Boniek, who scored 24 goals in 80 appearances for his country between 1976 and 1988, is poised to become the next president of Poland's Football Association.
