Jamie Carragher criticized Cody Gakpo for appearing to play in slow motion during the 4-3 loss to Manchester United, while also expressing disappointment with Liverpool’s lackluster attack, describing it as “very poor.”

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher expressed his discontent as his former team suffered a dramatic exit from the FA Cup quarter-finals against Erik ten Hag’s side.

According to reports from Metro, Carragher didn’t hold back, taunting Manchester United by suggesting that if they advance past Coventry City in the last four, they will likely face Manchester City in the final, where he believes City will prevail once again.

Carragher mocks Ferdinand 

Referring to a tweet from United legend Rio Ferdinand celebrating his team’s advancement to Wembley, Carragher responded with a cheeky “Relax 😂.”

“Man City will beat you comfortably in the final & [Erik ten Hag] will still be in charge next season. Jamie Carragher failed to give a chance as he names Pep Guardiola’s men as favorite finalists already.

“What an unbelievable game and a great result for Man United, but Liverpool only have themselves to blame. Scored three goals and still, the attacking players were all very poor.

Can’t complain too much as they’ve been amazing all season.” Carragher reflected on the match, acknowledging the disappointment despite Liverpool’s overall strong performance throughout the season.
