Jamie Carragher Calls Out Liverpool Player In Savage Analysis Of Current Crisis

Jamie Carragher has called out one Liverpool player as part of a savage analysis of the team's current performances.

The reigning Premier League winners were beaten 3-0 at home by Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Arne Slot's side have now lost six of their last seven league matches, with their latest defeat dropping them out of the top half of the table.

Forest's first goal on Saturday came from a set piece - an area that is becoming an increasing concern defensively for Liverpool.

After Murillo had put Sean Dyche's side ahead, second half goals from Nicolo Savona and Morgan Gibbs-White sealed a comprehensive victory that lifted Forest out of the relegation zone.

Unsurprisingly, the match was one of the opening topics of conversation on Monday Night Football ahead of Manchester United versus Everton.

And as part of his analysis, Carragher criticised the way in which Liverpool players conduct post-match media duties, suggesting that players other than captain Virgil van Dijk should face the media more often after big defeats.

He also called out Mohamed Salah, claiming he only hears him speak 'when he gets Man of the Match or needs a new contract'.

"I think Virgil van Dijk, after the game, has come out again and spoke, as he should do as captain. He's called Liverpool a mess," Carragher said.

"I must say, on the back of all these Liverpool defeats, it's always Virgil van Dijk who comes out. And as I say, the captain should do that. But there should be other players in that dressing room coming out and speaking for the club.

"A year ago this weekend, Mo Salah wasn't shy in coming out and speaking out his own situation, about the club not offering him a contract. I only hear Salah speak when he gets Man of the Match, or he needs a new contract.

"I'd like to see Mo Salah come out, as one of the leaders, one of the legends of Liverpool, to come out and speak for the team. It shouldn't always be the captain."
