Anybody else getting even more fed up with Carragher.
He is so critical of Liverpool even when they are 8 points clear at the top, even more so than Neville is about Man Utd.
Yesterday he was droning on about Saints playing suicidal football from the back.
They, like a lot of other clubs probably don't have the players to do it well.
In yesterday's game McCarthy was blamed for giving the ball to Fernandes who was then dispossessed but one of his defenders was telling him to do it.
On a positive note for Saints, it was McCarthy's quick ball to Fraser that led to their breakaway goal-neither the commentator nor Carragher picked up on that , playing the ball from the back rather than hitting it long.
The trouble with these lesser sides is that nearly all their players are back defending so if it goes long there is nobody there and the opposition can build again.
