Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher was critical of the team's defensive performance after the match. He expressed his frustration on a popular sports channel, saying that it was "unbelievable" that the team was able to create so many problems for themselves. Carragher pointed out that there were times when as many as eight players were ahead of the ball, which is not a sustainable strategy at the highest level.

Carragher also criticized the performance of Liverpool's center-back, Konate, who he felt had a "really, really poor night". He suggested that the team's problems run deeper than just the need for a new center-back, and that the team's make-up, including the use of attacking full-backs and a number ten who prioritizes offense over defense, is a key issue that needs to be addressed.

Carragher's comments reflect a broader concern that Liverpool may struggle to win the league if they continue to play with a defense that is so easily exploited. He believes that the team needs to find a way to balance their attacking style with a more solid defensive foundation in order to achieve success.
