Jamie Carragher admitted he was ‘worried’ following Liverpool’s 2-1 defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford on Monday night.
It proved to be a lacklustre display from Jurgen Klopp’s men who struggled to deal with the intensity of the home side. Jadon Sancho opened the scoring after just 16 minutes before Marcus Rashford doubled United’s advantage early in the second half.
Liverpool pulled a goal back through Mohamed Salah late on but failed to put Erik ten Hag’s men under any real pressure in the dying moments as they chased an equaliser. Post-match, Carragher stated he felt Liverpool ‘weren’t ready’ for the ferocity of United’s start.
