Graeme Souness v Tyrone Mings has caught us – and indeed Mings – off-guard. It won’t reach the lofty heights of Carragher and Simpson...
That Sky Sports platform inevitably puts Carragher in the line of fire more than many of his contemporaries. And while some players rise above whatever criticism the pundit issues, a handful are less willing to let dogs lie.
As recently as this month, Carragher teased a continuation of their rivalry by discussing Richarlison’s perceived diving and saying: “I guarantee you Everton fans when they play Tottenham this season will be saying the same if he carries on with that.”The other jewel in the Sky Sports punditry crown has had more than his fair share of scrapes.
It was a microcosmic section in a wide-ranging Daily Mail interview that snowballed into the story of the month. Neville sarcastically offered his ‘sincere apologies’ as a ‘failed manager’ the next day, only for a protective Jurgen Klopp to wade in and question how Neville is given such an influential platform when “he showed he struggled with the job to judge players” at the Mestalla.
“When others speak, maybe I don’t take it on the chin. When players have not had a career, played at a really bad level in their career… Robbie Savage being one. He’s dug me out a couple of times. You take it as a footballer, as an individual. I’ll take it from the Rios, Carraghers and Neville. All day long. From others? Nah.”
Brooking, who Clough had actually tried to sign for Derby alongside Bobby Moore a few years prior, had the last laugh with the winning header. When asked by FA lawyer Jim Sturman whether he felt Keane “intentionally went to injure his fellow professional” that day, Dunphy replied: “Without a doubt.”
