Liverpool has made a most satisfactory season. Leader of the Premier League with a less match and six lengths ahead of its runner -up, Arsenal, the Mersey club also won its qualification for the knockout stages of the Champions League by finishing first in this regular season.
Arne Slot's men also raised in the League Cup (English League Cup) final, where they will face Newcastle United on March 16 in Wembley. Only hung in this almost perfect route, their elimination in FA Cup (England Cup) against Plymouth Argyle (1-0) this Sunday. A disappointment which, however, does not seem to worry everyone, starting with Jamie Carragher.
The elimination in FA Cup, an evil for a good?
The former central defender of the Reds even sees positive in this defeat. Witness his emoji “100” in response to the publication of a supporter saying that “the probability of winning the championship has increased”, thus suggesting that the former English international validates this point of view.
And, in fact, with a competition less to compete, the residents of Anfield could limit the risk of injury. A factor that Carragher considers the main danger to the Liverpuldian team in his quest for the title, as he had already mentioned in December.
“My only concern for Liverpool is that his great players are injured. If they can avoid them, they will be difficult to catch up. Chelsea will finish third and despite his problems, I see Manchester City finish in the last place in the Champions League ”he declared in the columns of Telegraph.
