Jamie Carragher praised the performances of Joe Gomez and Andy Robertson after Liverpool’s latest victory over a stubborn Newcastle outfit.
The former Reds defender was keen to pay tribute to the pair on Twitter, with the former having been favoured over Trent Alexander-Arnold to grant the first-choice right back some much needed rest.
