Jamie Carragher accused Cody Gakpo of moving in slow motion during the 4-3 loss to Manchester United and says Liverpool’s attack was ‘very poor’.
The Liverpool legend was not happy as his former team was knocked out of the FA Cup quarter-finals on Sunday in dramatic fashion to Erik ten Hag’s side.
Carragher also taunted United after the match, stating that Manchester City will defeat them again in the final if the Red Devils get past Coventry City in the last four.
United lost the FA Cup final to their Manchester rivals last season and they could be set for a repeat of the 2023 showpiece if Pep Guardiola’s men beat Chelsea.
In response to a tweet from United legend Rio Ferdinand celebrating his old club getting to Wembley, Carragher posted: ‘Relax [laughing emoji].
‘Man City will beat you comfortably in the final & [Erik ten Hag] will still be in charge next season. It’s not the win you think it is!!’
Before that, he was critical of Liverpool’s performance and said: ‘Gakpo plays as if the game is in slow motion.
‘Unbelievable game & it’s a great result for Man United but Liverpool only have themselves to blame.
‘Scored three & still the attacking players were all very poor. Can’t complain too much as they’ve been amazing all season.’
Meanwhile, United legend Roy Keane felt that Liverpool were ‘sloppy’ in their defeat to Ten Hag’s side.
