Jamie Carragher reacts to Liverpool’s 3-3 thriller with Arsenal

Jamie Carragher criticised Liverpool’s shambolic defending after a 3-3 draw with Arsenal at Anfield on Wednesday night.

Roberto Firmino scored two goals to put Liverpool into the lead twice in the first half before Aaron Ramsey and Olivier Giroud levelled for the visitors to leave the match all square at the interval.

The France striker appeared to have scored a 55th-minute winner but Jurgen Klopp brought on Joe Allen as a late substitute and the Welsh midfielder fired a 90th-minute winner past Petr Cech.

Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet bore the brunt of the criticism from Reds supporters following another erratic performance from the Belgium international.

While Carragher enjoyed the rousing atmosphere at Anfield, the Champions League winner was quick to criticise Liverpool’s defending throughout the game.

Great atmosphere tonight, even the Main Stand was singing! Shambles at the back but great drive 2nd half to get back into it. JH excellent.
