Jamie Carragher insists Liverpool are 'playing BASKETBALL' in withering takedown after Galatasaray defeat, as club legend urges Arne Slot to take star out of the team: 'Right now it is a mess'

Jamie Carragher has ripped into Arne Slot's Liverpool after they suffered a second straight defeat in a 1-0 loss at Galatasaray on Tuesday.

In a damning verdict on the Reds, Carragher warned they were 'not a top team', claimed they were a 'mess' and said one star needed to be axed from the side because he was 'not at the races at all'.

Victor Osimhen's first-half penalty was enough to beat Liverpool in Istanbul but, in truth, the visitors could have lost by a wider margin.

The disappointment in a city that holds such fond memories for the club after their 2005 Champions League final triumph came just three days after they lost 2-1 at Crystal Palace.
