Jamie Carragher labelled THREE Tottenham players a 'disgrace' in a brutal assessment following their dismal performance against Liverpool.

Spurs entered Thursday's second-leg with a one-goal advantage following last month's victory.

But Ange Postecoglou's team crumbled at Anfield as Liverpool claimed a stunning 4-0 victory in the second-leg.

Cody Gakpo levelled the tie on aggregate before Mohamed Salah put his side ahead just after the break.

Dominik Szoboszlai made it 3-0, with Virgil van Dijk adding a fourth.

After the result, Carragher ripped into Spurs as he took aim at their midfield trio of Yves Bissouma, Rodrigo Bentancur and Pape Sarr.

He called them a 'disgrace' and thought Accrington Stanley, who played Liverpool in the FA Cup, gave more than Spurs.

Speaking on Sky Sports, he exclaimed: "When I looked at those three midfield players today I thought they were a disgrace, those Tottenham midfield players.

"You’re playing a semi-final. First 15 minutes-half an hour, Liverpool will be on the ball, put you under pressure, but get after them, be aggressive.

"Maybe forget the ball the first half an hour but be aggressive, even f you’re camped in your own half. It was still so easy for Liverpool to get to the edge of the box.

"Those midfield players didn’t even put a challenge in. It was shocking."

Carragher added: "I think of a cup tie Liverpool played at home a few weeks ago in the FA Cup,’ he said. ‘Liverpool didn’t play their best team, but I think Accrington Stanley gave more than Tottenham tonight and gave Liverpool more of a problem. That’s not right."

Spurs' defeat against Liverpool snaps their two-game winning streak, having beaten Elfsborg and Brentford.

They return to action on Sunday when they face Aston Villa in the FA Cup before resuming their faltering Premier League campaign against Manchester United on February 16.
