Andy Carroll: 'I love it at Liverpool'

Liverpool striker Andy Carroll has insisted that he 'loves' life at the club after rumours linking him with a move away from Anfield.

Carroll, who signed for £35m from Newcastle United in January 2011, was the recent subject of a swap deal involving Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez.

"I'm just here. I've signed a contract here and this is the team I'm playing for," said the 22-year-old. "I love it here. All the lads are great with me in training and away from the training ground everyone has been great with me as well."

Liverpool have denied reports that they contacted City over a potential switch.
