“This is What They Did to Man City Last Season!” – Jamie Carragher Explodes as Everton Get Away with Horror Challenge in Shocking Referee Decision
The Premier League is back in controversy, and this time, it’s Jamie Carragher leading the charge against the referees after a jaw-dropping moment in Everton’s latest match. The former Liverpool defender couldn’t hold back his fury as Everton miraculously escaped a red card for what many believe was a blatant sending-off offense.
Carragher’s rage boiled over in the post-match analysis as he drew a direct comparison to last season’s controversial officiating decisions, particularly those that affected Manchester City. The outspoken pundit didn’t mince his words, warning that if such decisions continue to go unchallenged, it could set a dangerous precedent for the rest of the season.
Carragher’s Explosive Rant: “Same Thing Happened to City Last Season!”
Speaking on live television, Carragher was visibly frustrated, slamming the officials for their inconsistency.
“This was the same thing the Premier League did to Manchester City last season! The same thing happened today, and no one is saying anything!” Carragher fumed. “If we keep mute about this, then it will keep happening. And next time, we won’t be as lucky as we were today!”
His frustration stemmed from a controversial challenge by an Everton player that many expected to result in an instant red card. But to the shock of fans, players, and even rival managers, the referee decided against it—leaving Carragher absolutely stunned.
Referee Under Fire – Premier League Bias?
The officiating decision has reignited the ever-growing debate about referee bias in the Premier League. Fans across social media have erupted, with many accusing the league of showing favoritism towards certain clubs while unfairly punishing others.
Manchester City supporters, in particular, have been vocal, recalling incidents from last season where they felt unfairly treated. They claim that had this incident involved their club, a red card would have been brandished instantly—no questions asked.
One City fan on X (formerly Twitter) wrote:
“If that was Rodri or Ruben Dias, they’d be off in a second! But when it’s an Everton player, suddenly the ref ‘didn’t see it properly?’ This league is a joke!”
Another added:
“Carragher is right! They did this to City last season, and now they’re at it again! It’s either incompetence or corruption!”
VAR Controversy Resurfaces
Once again, the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) is in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. The replay footage clearly showed that the challenge was dangerous, leading to questions about why the technology failed to intervene.
Football pundits and analysts have been left baffled, questioning whether VAR is being applied inconsistently across different teams. This only adds to the growing skepticism around the Premier League’s integrity, with many demanding reforms to ensure fairness in officiating.
What Happens Next?
With the debate heating up, all eyes will be on the Premier League’s response. Will the referees be held accountable for their questionable decisions? Or will this incident be swept under the rug like so many before it?
One thing is clear—Jamie Carragher has lit the fuse on yet another officiating controversy, and fans won’t be letting this one go anytime soon.
