  • Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by SkyBet.

     

    In today's special guest episode, we have none other than our very own Jamie Carragher in the spotlight.

     

    Joining him are former England teammates Gary Neville and Paul Scholes, along with Roy Keane and Ian Wright, as the Liverpool legend reflects on his remarkable career, which saw him lift a Champions League trophy, two FA Cups, three League Cups, and a UEFA Cup.

     

    A true one-club man, Carragher— who ranks second in Liverpool's all-time appearance list with 737 games at the Anfield side —shares stories from his childhood as an Everton supporter, even recalling how he wore the Toffees' blue shirt to his academy training sessions.

     

    Carragher, who played under managers including Gérard Houllier, Rafa Benítez, and Fabio Capello, opens up about his limited time in the England setup and discusses how a Premier League title narrowly escaped him.

     

    Lastly he reveals his all-time Liverpool XI; do you agree with his choices?
