Former Liverpool player Jamie Carragher has responded to Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola's recent comment about him not winning a Premier League title. The exchange took place after Carragher and other Sky Sports pundits criticized City's performance this season, prompting Guardiola to defend his team. Carragher hit back, suggesting that if Liverpool had the same resources as City, he would have won a title.

Guardiola's Defense and Accusations

Guardiola defended his players against accusations of complacency made by Carragher and other pundits. He pointed out that Gary Neville, a former Manchester United player, knows how difficult it is to win the Premier League and suggested that the pundits were projecting their own experiences onto City. Guardiola also mentioned Carragher specifically, stating that he never won a title himself.

Carragher's Response

Carragher took to Twitter to respond to Guardiola's comments. He sarcastically mentioned Liverpool's ownership situation and the financial regulations City has been charged with. Carragher also clarified that he had actually praised Guardiola's team after their recent game.

A Title That Eluded Carragher

Despite spending nearly two decades at Liverpool and achieving success in other competitions, Carragher never won a Premier League title. This remains a regret for him, as he reflects on his career.

City's Financial Regulations Charges

Manchester City has been charged with 115 breaches of financial regulations, following an investigation that began in 2018. The club is expected to face an independent panel in the autumn of 2024, but a decision may not be made until the summer of 2025. This could coincide with the end of Guardiola's contract with the club.
