What happened. Jamie Carragher delivered a scathing analysis of Liverpool's midfield after their 2-2 draw at Newcastle, saying the trio of Gravenberch, Szoboszlai, and Wirtz cannot function together.

Carragher says all three midfielders only think about going forward.
The midfield leaves space for counter-attacks, a big problem for Iraola.
Van Dijk sits deep, creating a mismatch with the high press.

“I don't believe that midfield can function with the personnel in there.”
— Jamie Carragher

Carragher doubts Liverpool can mount a title challenge with this tactical setup.
