I hope he&#8217;ll be back to his best for Switzerland in June.&#8221;<br \/>Carroll opened his senior account with a low shot two minutes before half-time before Sunderland forward Asamoah Gyan equalised in second-half stoppage time.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s great to be playing again and to have scored a goal. I&#8217;m here and ready to score goals if picked,&#8221; said Carroll.<\/p>\n<p>A Euro 2012 qualifier against the Swiss is up next for Capello&#8217;s side, who successfully employed a 4-3-3 formation in this week&#8217;s qualifier victory against Wales and the draw at Wembley.<br \/>Stand-in captain Gareth Barry said the new system is has become a useful ploy for coach Capello.<br \/>&#8220;The big thing was that the change of formation has been very positive,&#8221; said the Manchester City midfielder.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We put in a good performance against the Welsh and in the first half tonight. It&#8217;s a great plus that this is a formation that the manager can use.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Capello said he was pleased with the competitive spirit shown by both sides in the friendly.<br \/>&#8220;It was a fantastic game, I&#8217;m very happy,&#8221; he continued.<br \/>&#8220;It was not a friendly game, there were two teams on the pitch playing well, strongly, with lots of tackles. It was absolutely not a friendly game. I&#8217;m really happy with the performance.<br \/>&#8220;The players played without fear, with confidence. Ghana are a really good team. The whole performance was fantastic.&#8221;<br \/>Capello also praised Aston Villa&#8217;s Ashley Young for his display in attack.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Young has been one of most interesting players this season,&#8221; added the Italian.<br \/>&#8220;He changed position and played more freely. His movement was really good and he was dangerous when he received the ball because technically his vision is really good.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/201ed65bget.media_903-150x90.gif\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Go here to read the rest:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/foreign.peacefmonline.com\/sports\/201103\/148943.php\" title=\"England Coach Fabio Capello Wants Andy Carroll To Improve\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">England Coach Fabio Capello Wants Andy Carroll To Improve<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Fabio Capello believes striker Andy Carroll is still short of his best form despite scoring his first England goal in the 1-1 draw against Ghana.
