Jamie Carragher has pointed to two key issues that Steven Gerrard must navigate as he attempts to cling onto his position at Aston Villa.
The Liverpool icon has come under severe pressure in the Midlands with his side having lost four out of their opening five games of the new season. That has called for some to argue that Gerrard should be relieved of his duties at Villa Park.
It remains to be seen if the former midfielder is able to reverse the fortunes of his side over the coming weeks but ex-teammate Carragher has already leapt to his defence recently. He has now doubled down on that stance by claiming that Philippe Coutinho ’s uninspiring form since his permanent move to the club - as well as the tricky situation revolving around Tyrone Mings - has made Gerrard’s position appear more in doubt than it should be.
