Arsenal fans convinced they ‘live rent free in Jamie Carragher’s head’ after Carabao Cup final commentary
FANS claim Arsenal “live rent free” in Jamie Carragher’s head – after the “obsessed” commentator’s latest rant in the Carabao Cup final.
Liverpool legend Carra moaned that matchwinner Virgil van Dijk had an earlier goal wrongly erased following a “blocking” move the Gunners use.

Earlier this month Carragher also blasted Arsenal skipper Martin Odegaard for over-celebrating a 3-1 win over Liverpool.
In the end, VVD headed the only goal against Chelsea near the end of extra time on Sunday in a Wembley showpiece crammed full of chances.
But before that the Dutch defender had a similar effort disallowed.
Wataru Endo was judged offside in the build-up after VAR intervened.
Endo tried to get back onside but was assessed to have impeded Van Dijk‘s marker, Ben Chilwell.
Carragher claimed Arsenal regularly “stand in the way of goalkeepers” – and some pundits suggesting they deploy Ben White to hinder keepers.
But Gunners’ fans taunted the pundit for referencing their team in a match they had nothing to do with.
Just three weeks ago, Carra had told Arsenal skipper Martin Odegaard to “get down the tunnel” after his antics following the end of Liverpool’s 22-match unbeaten run.

HOW TO GET FREE BETS ON FOOTBALL
And perhaps that was fresh in the mind of Arsenal supporters as they again rounded on him.
One posted: “Carragher, ‘Arsenal block off goalkeepers for every set piece’. He can’t get us out of his head.”
Another wrote: “Jamie Carragher mentioning Arsenal during this cup final, we really do live rent free in his head.”
Similar jibes flowed in, such as: “Carragher is fuming. Why did he bring Arsenal into this?” and “Why is Jamie Carragher mentioning Arsenal in a cup final that they are not involved in?
One fan claimed the ex-England defender was “mega fuming” and another insisted: “He’s obsessed.”
But Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp reacted with disbelief when VVD’s goal was disallowed.
Many Reds’ fans blasted what they called an “awful decision”.
One argued: “Endo didn’t move, he didn’t move into Colwill’s position. Football is dying.”
But another viewer accused Liverpool’s Japanese anchorman of being “lazy” for his “unforgivable” act of not getting out of the way quicker.
