No, Jamie Carragher wasn’t arrested outside Anfield last night

CARRAGHER ARRESTED! the front pages didn't scream this morning, despite the images doing the rounds on Twitter last night of the ex-Liverpool defender being strong-armed by a policeman.

Our chief football writer Tony Barrett spotted Carra apparently selling t-shirts outside Anfield last night before the borefest game of Mournihoball between Liverpool and Manchester United that finished 0-0. Now, after a full career playing for one of the richest clubs in the world, followed by his successful career as a pundit for Sky Sports, you wouldn't think that Carra would need the money from peddling dodgy gear outside a football ground. And you'd be right. https://twitter.com/TonyBarrett/status/788049974638641154 But after a while, the long arm of the law appeared... https://twitter.com/TonyBarrett/status/788054826252918786 ... and the officer asked to see Carra's licence. "No I didn’t need one - I’m king of Anfield," came the reply from the former defender. https://youtu.be/1fh02KxUxHI He goes on to tell the copper that the tops "fell off the back of a lorry" before plod - an Evertonian - obligingly grabs him, presumably ready to frogmarch him down Letsby Avenue. But fear not! Our brave MNF pundit was not really arrested. It was all a gag publicity stunt for a clothing brand (which you can find online if you search hard enough). So no night in the cells for Carra - though that might have been preferable to having to watch Jose Mourinho suck every last ounce of joy out of the game last night.
