Carragher: Liverpool AND Leicester should hang their heads in shame!

Published on: 28 February 2017

Jamie Carragher has potted both Liverpool and Leicester City.

Carragher's former club Liverpool were beaten 3-1 by the Foxes at the King Power Stadium on Monday night.

After the match, the pundit suggested that both sets of players can hang their heads in shame for what went on in the East Midlands, referring to the current situations of Jurgen Klopp's side and the reigning champions who sacked Claudio Ranieri last week.

"Leicester were brilliant, absolutely superb tonight," Carragher said on Sky Sports' Monday Night Football.

"But they have won the game by energy, closing people down, being horrible and being difficult to play against.

"That's not tactics, that's not having great players. That's having something inside you. It is right that they are asked questions because it wasn't as though we were suddenly seeing 11 fantastic footballers, we were just seeing a team fully committed.

"I've been watching football for a very, very long time and I don't think I've ever seen a game of football where two teams should come off the pitch and hang their heads in shame - Liverpool for how bad they were and Leicester for how good they were on the back of how poor they've been, just through effort and commitment.

"We saw Jamie Vardy going down on the floor exhausted, but more through relief they'd got that win because they've been battered.

"I've been a big part of that and that still doesn't change it for me. In some ways it may even reinforce that they haven't done enough for Claudio Ranieri."
