Andy Carroll is back in training for West Ham[GETTY]
The West Ham striker damaged his ankle on the pre-season tour of New Zealand after spending most of last season on the sidelines with a heel injury.
“I have no time whatsoever to put on it, just that he has started back training,” Allardyce said. "He has done some jogging but to predict a time is wrong, not least for Andy.
“When you have had an operation of that type, we have to be guided by the specialist that did it, our head of medical and Andy himself to make sure we do not take any risks too early.”
