Jamie Carragher criticized Tottenham defender Djed Spence for pressing too high, which left the defense vulnerable. He emphasized the need for players to make smarter decisions on the pitch: 'Look at your left back going to press, you don't do that! You stay at left-back, Archie Gray gets dragged across… For me, that decision from the left back, you could say he's just made the decision, but if your manager has been there for 18 months, those messages must be getting passed on every single day.'
The match highlighted Tottenham's defensive shortcomings as Liverpool capitalized on their mistakes, with Salah's efforts resulting in a standout 6-3 victory: 'It was another match that showed that the Tottenham defense needs a lot of work if they want to achieve their targets this season.'
Carragher specifically pointed out Spence's mistake during the match, stating: 'You leave an 18-year-old kid at… no man's land', underlining the critical need for tactical awareness among Spurs defenders.
