Kevin Nolan has said that he would like to see Andy Carroll remain at West Ham United next season.
The striker, who has scored two goals in the league this season, is on a season-long loan at Upton Park from Liverpool.
The 30-year-old told reporters: "Everyone at West Ham has really enjoyed working with Andy, and we all believe there is no better place for him to be than at our club.
"No one has spoken about what happens when his loan spell with us is up but everyone in our dressing room will want Andy to stay beyond the end of this season.
"Only time will tell where Andy plays next season. We feel we're a good fit at West Ham but he's only scored two goals for us so far so he's going to have to get his finger out or we won't want to buy him."
The 24-year-old recently returned to the West Ham lineup, having missed two months with a knee injury.
