Topic: Jamie Carragher

[Ravishing Rick Dude]

What's been said the last day or two?  Must have missed it.  Saw some Twitter comments that seemed to infer a spat with Ian Broudie, but it seems posts were deleted.

Yeah, the massive upgrade in goalkeeper might just have played a part in improving those stats too (as great as Virg is).

Carragher was saying the other week Alisson is just like having Mignolet in goal.

[jillcwhomever]

The more he talks the more his BS bias comes out of him, just not bothered about him anymore. He arrived at LFC in an Everton kit remember its never truly left him.

[Red Beret]

I'm all for respecting our players past and present, especially the good servants. But it's a 2 way street. Once they've finished, they need to understand their responsibilities to the club that paid them well and gave them a profile.

Kenny needs to have a quiet word.

Kenny needs to give him a fucking slap.  To think people touted him as a potential manager one day.  Should be out on his ear, less welcome here than Michael Owen.

[So… Howard Philips]

I would assume his family are Bitters so it's not surprising really.

And having an ex Liverpool player chatting shite is great for Sky.

Phil Thompson is back on LFCTV. Decent and enthusiastic unlike Carragher who has to play the miserable Scouser to the gallery.

There are a few good ones on LFCTV, I love Gary Gillespie just sticks to making sensible comments not saying anything contentious. A man who understands football without agendas and the need to slander or be outlandish.

I've always felt Lucas Neill was unjustly maligned for breaking Jamie's leg. He clearly went studs up with no intention of hurting him.

So he almost had someone assaulted for a football foul but a retrospective ban is a step too far.

I like Gillespie but he does try a bit too hard being a dour Scot.

Jason Mcateer is pretty decent as well. They both obviously love the club but will criticise when necessary.

Yes a retrospective ban is out of order but a retrospective beating is fine.

I wonder what Sky would think about his part in a conspiracy to commit GBH?

Love Gary Gillespie. Scores a hat trick in the first game I ever saw us win!

Prize for the first person to guess the game.

[bornandbRED]

Even taking out the nonsense he spouts about LFC, he’s just a complete and utter bullshitter. Articulate? No. Knowledgeable about the game beyond obvious platitudes? No. Not sure what made Sky place him as their centrepiece when he retired.

At least Owen seems to have a genuine affection towards us. And doesn’t come across as a spiteful shithouse.

Just being himself then? I like that. 

Yes, Jason can be quite amusing I like Spackman as well he is on quite often. I like the humour of it more than anything, everything else is far too serious for my liking.

He was a good defender, sure he played a few games in midfield as well from memory. He was a really graceful player. He also seemed to be quicker when you watched him live, then what you watched him on the television, if that makes any sense.

Souness as well.

It's one thing his general twattishness, but he's fucking clueless to go with it.  I remember at the back end of his playing days when he was weighing up management and modelling himself as some kind of 'student of the game'. Maybe the John Smiths 'Ave it' advert with Peter Kay.

He'd have been a joke as a manager and he had the nerve to give Gary Neville shit over failing at Valencia.

[TALBERT]

He's becoming an uncontrollable bellend of the highest order


Just basically asked Coady to sign for Liverpool in a live interview on MNF...


Should have been sent packed when he spat at that little girl

This is what happens when someone is drunk off their own bullshit. That or he’s sniffed one too many lines in the Sky toilets.

Winner Winner! 1986 on the way to the Double.

Absolute bellend

Carra's a nob, a total fucking nob.
Where was he when the cancers tried to kill this club.
More worried about Pickford than VVD.
More involved with the Toffees than with the club that made him.
He's not a red he's a fucking bitter.
Go put on your fucking Everton shirt you ball bag.
Hopefully he spits on someone soon so he's off our screens for good.

So cringey. Cudos to Coady for handling it well

[AndyMuller]

I'll never forget the hoofs to opposition players he used to do. Scarred me for life they have.

[B0151?]

It's amazing how sensitive people are over different opinions

[Escorcio]

Carragher's a knob but that Coady interview was quite funny

[sinnermichael]

He talks shite.

Saying we lost the league in 1989 because Hansen got injured pre season. I recall we lost the league because of the worst disaster in our history followed by a 6 week lay off then being forced by the FA to play 6 games in 19 days, including a extra time FA cup Final. Even then we lost it on goal difference in stoppage time in the last game because John Barnes needlessly gave the ball away.

Yeah, that felt like he thought of a few examples and the tried to find other ones to justify it. You could argue the Roy Keane injury I think. He did his knee in about September of 97/98 and they did miss him that season. The other examples felt less relevant, even Laporte I’d say.

[AndyMuller]

People aren't acting this way just because of his opinion on the Pickford tackle though are they? This is a man who spat at a girl and has been talking shite about football over the past 12 months easily all because he loves the sound of his own voice.

[Keith Lard]

I think being on Sky Sports for so long and the pressure of delivering one liners to keep himself relevant is turning him into a pantomime villain on here. I think the lineup on Sky in general is a bit cringe and starting to get tiresome - I think they need to take a leaf out of ESPN's book and get a regular journalistic presence on their panels, such as Gab Marcotti or Juliens Laurens. Much prefer listening to them two over anyone Sky dishes up.

All that being said, I've always had suspicions with Carra. My loyalties always lay with Rafa and I don't like a bad word or disrespect towards that absolute gentleman, and Carra is consistently slightly disrespectful to Rafa when discussing him. Then there was the spitting incident. And now he's generally a loudmouth gobshite. It's probably time for him to be taken off the airwaves. He's just shit these days.

[rossipersempre]

 Just got called out by Jurgen about claiming we made a mistake not buying another CB in the summer. "There's a reason he doesn't do this job..."

[Samie]

Call out Kloppo, I dare you fucker.

He'll snipe from the commentary box every time we concede with Tyler egging him on.

Not a chance. The snide smirk he had during Keane/sloppygate didn't go unnoticed. Also no way he'd have told Souness to "behave" if he'd have been sitting next to him in the studio.

All mouth, as that teenage girl found out when her dad wound down her window.

Remember his first appearance on Sky? It was just after FSG took over and Merson was slaughtering Glen Johnson and Carragher (still a Liverpool player) was sat next to him grinning away while he ripped into his team mate.

Johnson slaughtered Merson and stuck up for himself. Always respected him after that https://www.theguardian.com/football/2011/jan/08/glen-johnson-paul-merson

[clinical]

He's now retweeting pics of Everton fans making image of Van Dijk with he leg off. He's turned into a right twat.

[Stockholm Syndrome]

He's becoming a very unlikable fella. Shades of Stockholm syndrome.

I take offence to that

[J_Kopite]

Is it ok to prefer Michael Owen to Carragher now?
