Is the Premier League already played? This Sunday, Liverpool gave Manchester City a football lesson. With these three more points, the Reds are eleven points ahead of the title holders and nine over their runner-up, Arsenal. As against Real Madrid, Arne Slot's protégés put enormous pressure on the Citizens. In a packed Anfield, Pep Guardiola saw his team lose for the sixth time in seven games. An unprecedented series which also results in the poor form of Erling Haaland. The Norwegian international failed to find the net and was muzzled by Virgil Van Dijk. But the performance of the former Borussia Dortmund player did not please Jamie Carragher.
“He made Erling Haaland look like Alf-Inge Haaland”
On X, Jamie Carragher did not fail to criticize Erling Haaland, without forgetting to praise the merits of Virgil Van Dijk, author of an XXL match against the Norwegian cyborg: “Virgil Van Dijk's performance today was incredible! I know he made a mistake at the end. He made Erling Haaland look like Alf-Inge Haaland! All the great defenders of the past had strikers who posed for them problems. Virgil Van Dijk has just played against Mbappé and Haaland in the last four days and played them with such ease that he could have played with a cigar! This is what is said.
