Former Liverpool centre-back Jamie Carragher has spoken out about Everton’s lack of trophies in the last 25 years.
Carragher was still an Everton fan and on the periphery of making a breakthrough at Liverpool when Everton last won a trophy in form the 1995 FA Cup.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Carragher highlighted how the current Premier League so-called top six, have pulled away from clubs like Everton, West Ham and Newcastle with their financial spending power, while also pondering about why Everton haven’t won a title since their 1995 FA Cup triumph, suggesting there’s no excuse for going that long without a trophy.
As seen in the video below, in conversation with Sky Sports, Carragher said:
“A club the size of Everton shouldn’t be going 25 years without a trophy.”

Carragher’s comments come as no surprise given the size of the club and their wide fan base who are yet to see Everton win a major honour in the last two and half decades.
