"They were terrified of moving the manager on, who has been a legend and a great success there. There had to be a change. There had to be! And then the summer comes, and there's all this, 'maybe things will be different'. I think (Ivan) Gazidis said, 'a catalyst for change' – that's worse!"https://twitter.com/SportsJOE_UK/status/902125444639707136 Carragher then took aim at the players. Following Arsenal's 3-0 defeat to Crystal Palace in April, Carragher called the Arsenal players "cowards". On Sunday, the Sky Sports pundit doubled down on the claim.
"Last season, I called them 'cowards'. And afterwards maybe I got a little bit of criticism, maybe that’s a bit too strong and you can’t say that on live TV, but I'll say it again – cowards. That was worse than what I saw at Crystal Palace last year."You can see both Henry and Souness react when Carragher called Arsenal "cowards" again. Henry looked surprised, before shifting in his chair and awkwardly fixing his suit jacket. Souness gave a look to the presenter which suggested even he wouldn't go that far.
Here's another look:
The former England defender reckons nothing will change at the club as long as Wenger is manager, and that although it would be a shame if he left, Arsenal need to be ruthless.
"I love Arsene Wenger, but that’s what I’m going to say again, not ruthless enough… Get used to it for the next two years... That's the type of performance that gets the manager the sack, (but) those performances got the manager a two-year contract."
