Excellent finish and should do wonders for his confidence.
He'll be off to get smacked up with Nolan this evening to celebrate.

Pleased with that half. West Brom are always a tough game away from home and the two goal lead should mean they play more open in the second half leaving more space for our attackers to exploit.
Our defence looks far more composed without Carragher playing and we've retained possession better than we usually do when he plays. Also built a number of our attacks from the back which is how Liverpool should play football.
Not been too impressed with our attackers though. Henderson and Downing have been largely useless and our two goals came from a dodgy penalty and a West Brom mistake. I expect far better from them and hope to see Bellamy on in the second half.
Not a fan of Henderson on the right but from the 15 minutes he played in the centre a few games ago it's obvious he's a very talented player when played in his natural position.Downing has been good to the final ball, Henderson hasn't been that bad, mind you have never seen you rate him.
Bellamy should definitely be ahead of both.
right 2:30am, time for bed I reckon. With the clocks going back in the UK, I think that will be my last late kick off match to watch!
Good night folks
I still dont see how the words "Andy Carroll" and "£35m" can possibly be used in the same sentence without the word "refund" involved somewhere!
Solid win for Liverpool. A potentially tricky game but WBA were absolutely honking in the first half especially.

Its not that he is worth that much is just how much Newcastle wanted for him since he was their best player and all the interest from other clubs for Carrol.... and not to mention it was a dead line day deal. Those always go for more.
I'd rate him as an 18m striker.
