CARRA IS TRUE GREAT

Liverpool Echo 16 January 2008


Jamie Carragher deserved all the plaudits he received on his 500th appearance for Liverpool – a magnificent achievement, writes Anfield Iron Tommy Smith.

For the sake of the team, I hope he goes to 600 and beyond – and his consistency should easily take him there.

Thank God he is a key member of the side who performs to such a high standard virtually every week.

The best tribute I can pay him is that he is one of the best defenders in the world – and one player who could perform in any Liverpool team in any era. Congratulations Jamie.
