Matt Le Tissier claims he fell out with Jamie Carragher in HEATED phone call after questioning his spitting scandal following Sky Sports sacking: 'I don't care about you or your opinion'

Matt Le Tissier has claimed that he fell out with Jamie Carragher through a row over the latter's suspension from Sky Sport.

Carragher's future as a pundit was hanging by a thread back in 2018 when he was filmed spitting at a car containing a man and a 14-year-old girl after being mocked on the road.

Carragher, then 40, was clinging onto his role and suspended, but following a full and frank apology on Sky News in the immediate aftermath as well as sessions with renowned psychiatrist Steve Peters, the defender was reinstated to his role.
