Carragher was on punditry duty, but was never likely to be at his impartial best on such a memorable occasion for his former club, with Geoff Shreeves setting up this interview by revealing Mane is Carragher’s favourite player.
The former Liverpool defender never won a league title himself, with this season’s triumph ending the Merseyside giants’ 30-year wait to get their hands on the trophy.
