Garry Monk has warned his Swansea City side that they cannot afford to ignore the threat of West Ham United striker Andy Carroll this afternoon.
Carroll stole the plaudits by netting twice in a 3-1 win over the Swans earlier in the campaign, having also bagged two assists in this fixture last season.
However, Monk revealed that he has a plan to combat the imposing striker, whom he claims is the most "powerful" forward in the Premier League.
"It's something we have to put right but he is an incredible player physically," he told Sky Sports News ahead of kickoff at the Liberty Stadium.
"He is probably the most powerful forward in the Premier League and he has supremacy over everyone.
"Sometimes when the ball in is right, there's not much you can do, but we have to try to stop him and that's something we've been working on."
Carroll has scored three and created one in 10 league appearances this season.
