Jamie Carragher claims Everton ‘froze’ on the big stage as they were comfortably beaten 2-0 by Liverpool at Anfield.
The Toffees made the trip across Stanley Park in high spirits after beating Arsenal in Sean Dyche’s first game in charge. Liverpool meanwhile were coming off the back of some chastening results and hadn’t won a league game this calendar year.
But goals from Mohamed Salah and Cody Gakpo put that unwanted record to bed, with Everton left bemoaning two crucial errors. Dyche’s side had actually weathered the storm somewhat in the first half and were 10 minutes away from getting to the break unscathed.
