I wouldn't call it good news and I wasn't greatly impressed with our draw. Spurs needed more fire power and I hope that we get it before the transfer window closes or we will struggle to make the top 6, let alone anything higher.
As for Carroll, I am not sure about him yet. He scored a good goal in a friendly, but that is what it was, only a friendly. The next game coming up is against Stoke and they are no pushover. Liverpool were lucky to beat them and unless we are firing on all cylinders we are going to have problems.
