Gary Neville sings Zlatan Ibrahimovic's praises after EFL Cup final exploits as Jamie Carragher admits: 'I wish that he was playing here 10 years ago... not in a Manchester United shirt though!

Daily Mail | February 27, 2017

Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville have heaped praise on Manchester United forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic for his exploits during the EFL Cup final on Sunday.

Ibrahimovic scored twice, including a late winner, and was named man of the match as Jose Mourinho won his first trophy in charge of the Red Devils with a 3-2 victory at Wembley.

The 35-year-old, a free transfer during the summer transfer window, has 26 goals in 38 appearances in all competitions so far this season - more than any other player.

Speaking ahead of Liverpool's trip to Leicester on Sky Sports' Monday Night Football show, Sportsmail columnist Carragher admitted that the only negative about Ibrahimovic's form is that he didn't grace the Premier League sooner.
