Carragher's Surprising Gear Choice: What's the Story?
Liverpool, UKFri Dec 06 2024
It's not every day you see a Liverpool legend like Jamie Carragher wearing a Manchester United shirt. But that's exactly what happened during a podcast watchalong with Ian Wright, Gary Neville, and Roy Keane. The shirt might seem like a strange choice, especially given Carragher's history with Liverpool. He played for the Reds for 16 years, making a whopping 737 appearances and helping them win the Champions League in 2005.
So, why the United shirt? It's all about strategy. Liverpool and Arsenal are close in the Premier League standings, and Carragher was hoping Manchester United could help out by beating Arsenal. The United shirt he wore is famous for a kit clash in the 1995/96 season, but this time, it was a symbol of hope for Liverpool's title chances.
The plan didn't work out as intended. Arsenal scored twice in the second half, closing the gap on Liverpool. Plus, Chelsea's big win against Southampton put them in second place on goal difference. It's a tough break for Liverpool, but the season is far from over.
