Carragher's warning to Arsenal

Carragher has now sent the north Londoners a fiery warning in their bid to win the Premier League title, claiming two key positions could deny them a chance at glory.

According to the former England international, goalkeeper David Raya and a lack of a prolific striker could cost them the crown.

"I feel like I’m watching a different team. They’re more solid defensively, but they’re not as fluid and they’re creating as many chances," Carragher told Sky Sports, as quoted by Metro UK.

Have Arsenal got a centre-forward and a goalkeeper who can win you the league? I don’t think they have. When you think of vital positions where teams win leagues, it’s in both boxes," he added.

Sports Brief has also reported that former Premier League referee Dermot Gallagher has lifted the lid on why the VAR allowed the goal to stand.

"The whole of the ball has to be over the whole of the line. You can look at it from that angle, and it is impossible to tell," he told the league's website.
