The former Manchester United manager was a genius, Jamie Carragher believes, but now the ex-Liverpool defender is looking beyond the club’s first title in 30 years
Jamie Carragher expects Liverpool to wrap up the title quite quickly once Premier League football resumes, though he believes his former club might have had to wait even longer than 30 years but for Sir Alex Ferguson stepping down at Manchester United in 2013.
“Sir Alex was a genius,” the Sky commentator says of the manager who did more than anyone else to ensure that he and Steven Gerrard completed successful careers without winning the league. “Liverpool finally look like they are back on their perch now but it is only since Ferguson has gone that clubs other than United have been given an opportunity.”
