Jamie Carragher discusses Manchester City’s defensive issues
While analyzing Spurs’ comeback goal, Carragher highlighted City’s high defensive line and their choice to push forward instead of covering the runner behind.
He pointed out that this kind of error can disrupt the entire defensive setup.
“I can’t comprehend it because I’ve experienced similar situations,” Carragher said. “I always emphasize that we shouldn’t play offside; they should run offside.”
