Andy Carroll has claimed that he is the happiest he has been since he joined Liverpool a year ago.

The former Newcastle United striker scored during Liverpool's 6-1 FA Cup victory over Brighton on Sunday and believes that he is beginning to produce his best form for the Merseyside club.

The 23-year-old said: "I feel I have just started to get going. I'm scoring goals and feel like I am doing well now.

"This is the best I've felt since I have been here, without a doubt. I feel fit and confident and I think it is showing in my performances.

"I'm getting around the pitch more and getting involved. I think it shows that I am happier and more confident."

Carroll's team are preparing to face Cardiff City in the Carling Cup final this Sunday.
