Jamie Carragher blasts Man United star after drab 0-0 stalemate with Liverpool and questions why Erik ten Hag started him at Anfield – insisting the player ‘can’t run’

Jamie Carragher ruthlessly criticised one of Manchester United’s stars during the Red Devils’ 0-0 stalemate with Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday.

The visitors picked up a valuable point against their bitter rivals, who headed into the Premier League weekend at the top of the table, but both sides struggled to impress at Anfield with unconvincing performances in attack.

Liverpool dominated possession but failed to capitalise on their opportunities during the listless affair, lacking quality in the final third.

Meanwhile, Manchester United defended well enough to keep the Reds at bay but continually chased shadows in midfield, struggling to get a meaningful run of possession until the match opened up in the final stages.

Liverpool legend Carragher, who was analysing the match while on commentary duty, noticed how Manchester United summer signing Sofyan Amrabat was continually beaten by Reds attackers in the first half.

 

The Morocco international, who is on loan from Fiorentina and started the match in midfield for Manchester United, was shown a yellow card in the 35th minute after bringing down Liverpool’s Luis Diaz.

Amrabat’s booking prompted a bemused Carragher to question why Erik ten Hag had started him in the engine room alongside Kobbie Mainoo and Scott McTominay.
