Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher clarified his stance on defending Steven Gerrard’s Aston Villa tenure

The fan also reminded Carragher that he actually wrote an article during his former Liverpool teammate Steven Gerrard’s tenure at Aston Villa with the headline: ‘My hero and best friend’.

Carragher clarified why he did that, saying:

Gerrard had taken over as the manager of Aston Villa in November 2021, replacing Dean Smith. However, the former Reds midfielder couldn’t bring about a positive change in the team’s results.

He completed the 2021-22 season with his team languishing in the 14th position. Things got even worst in the current campaign as the Villans won only two of their first 12 matches. This led to the sacking of Gerrard on October 20. Unai Emery took over as head coach of the team.
