Carragher
criticizes Rodgers’ tactics
Liverpool legend Jamie
Carragher has hit out at the club manager Brendan Rodgers’ tactics
following a 1-3 loss to Manchester United.
A
stunning over head kick from new signing Christian Benteke was one of the few bright
spots for the Reds in the match, and Carragher wants Rodgers to change tactics.
“I
don’t understand this obsession with playing 4-3-3,” he fumed. “There is not
enough support for Benteke.
“Brendan
Rodgers has come to the club playing 4-3-3 and it didn’t work. The great season
they had was with two strikers and how they got them into the team. It is down
to the manager.
“They
have got a lot of strikers, no wide players, and he continues to play 4-3-3.
They have no wide players – they have only got Jordon Ibe.
“For
me, Philippe Coutinho is not a wide player and I don’t understand what the
point was in playing Danny Ings in that position. He didn’t give the support to
Benteke.
“Think
about how many strikers Liverpool have on the books – Danny Sturridge is
another one who is still to come back.”
