The former Reds legend gave his views on the win over Ajax

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher's statements always get people talking and this time was no exception after the team's Champions League win over Ajax Amsterdam at Anfield. Through his Twitter account, the former Reds captain left a message that caught the attention and that few expected due to the bad moment that the team lived in the last few days and that had generated many negative thoughts.

Carragher had become one of the main critics of German coach Jurgen Klopp for his decisions on the pitch. He had also pointed to the management of signings during the summer window and the choice of new players who arrived as reinforcements. But with tonight's favourable result he decided to change his stance on the analysis of the team and what they showed in this match.

That was a typical Liverpool performance under Jurgen Klopp! Huge result and great performance' These were the words of the player who retired in 2013 and who was part of the Champions League winning team in 2005 although he could never win the coveted Premier League. This is a kind of alliance with the club that will help improve the atmosphere in the squad, remembering that their next game is until October 1 when they play Brighton at Anfield in round 9 of the Premier League.

Egyptian star Mohamed Salah found the net again and could have opened the scoring in the 11th minute with a fine finish. But the Dutch team responded with a goal from Ghanaian striker Mohammed Kudus in the face of defensive lapses by both Alexander Arnold and captain Virgil van Dijk, which suggested it was going to be another difficult night for German coach Jurgen Klopp's side. However, with the game winding down, defender Joel Matip headed the ball into the back of the net to give Liverpool an agonising victory.

<strong>Liverpool left doubts about their performance</strong>

The Reds once again raised doubts about their performance and the complexity of scoring goals despite having the likes of Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah. Although many fans were not happy with the result, it will help Jurgen Klopp to make better use of this time off and present a better side for the return to action after the international break.
