Scouser Caught in Red Dilemma…
Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher is stuck in a conundrum bigger than a last-minute VAR check: accused of being biased toward his beloved Liverpool, the Scouser claims he “can’t win” — even if his team can’t at times either! Post Liverpool’s Carabao Cup calamity, he showered Newcastle with so much praise that you would think they were the reincarnation of Brazil’s 1970 World Cup team. Carragher even confessed his admiration for Newcastle’s coach, Eddie Howe, as if he were a long-lost Beatle!
But fear not, Carragher wasn’t all satin shirts and groovy vibes about Newcastle. When Liverpool slipped against PSG (let’s blame it on the macarons in the Parisian air), Jamie understandbly pointed the finger towards a squad snacking on croissants instead of steroids. He did however cheekily suggest to the FA that maybe Howe should’ve been picked over Tuchel for putting on such a spectacle! Quick to remain the banter king, he couldn’t resist ribbing Gary Neville about Newcastle playing it to the corner — but who wouldn’t?
When teased about his Liverpool loyalties during a fan debate, Carragher poked fun at his own critics, comparing himself to a pinball machine that can’t make up its mind. “I get it from both ends, lads!” he chuckled. “I have people saying I’m either swinging like a pendulum or tougher than a Ninja Turtle’s shell on Liverpool! But in the end, my only coaching is letting my brain voice the full-on football orchestra concert inside it. If Liverpool scores, I lose it! If they mess up, maybe I get all Sherlock Holmes on them! Come what Koulibaly, the pitch is my stage!”
