Jamie Carragher admits his spitting incident in 2018 'knocked me for six months' after being suspended as a pundit by Sky Sports, with the Liverpool legend revealing he saw a psychologist to help him deal with the episode.
The former defender had been returning from Old Trafford after his beloved Reds were beaten 2-1 by Manchester United in March of that year when he was goaded by a rival fan in a nearby car. Carragher then spat towards the man and his daughter, who had their window wound down.
There were widespread calls for Carragher to be sacked after his spit hit the 14-year-old girl, but he left his role at Sky briefly before returning six months later having reached out to the two involved to apologise.
