While England prepare to take on Lithuania in Vilnius, West Ham star Andy Carroll is enjoying the international break as he spends time relaxing in sunny Dubai.

The West Ham striker has returned to first team action after a long lay-off with injury but is still building up his match fitness.

But while some of his team-mates are away on international duty, the 26-year-old is spending time with fiancee Billi Mucklow and son Arlo.

After making his comeback, Carroll's team-mate James Tomkins was delighted to see the striker return to action.

He told the club's website: 'It was good to see Andy back among the goals and get 90 minutes under his belt after being injured for a while.

'It is good for him to be back out there and it was also great to see Enner get some match fitness.

'He is ahead of schedule which is good for him and us as a team. If we can keep him fit he is an added bonus and the squad is looking very strong. It is nice for the players who are just coming back.

'I think we have got a good mixture in our attacking players. We have got physical presence and skillful players up there.'
