Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has joked with Gary Neville on social media over the former right-back’s claim that Alexis Sanchez would be a good signing for Manchester United.

It was another controversial weekend in the Premier League with a number of VAR decisions questioned and Carragher aired his thoughts on Instagram.

“I defended #VAR at the start as I felt the process needed to be given a chance,” Carragher wrote.

“I argued with people who were set against it & I really wanted it to take the game forward.

“But we’re now talking about it more than we ever did about officials & decisions & that can’t be right.”

Neville replied saying: “It’s not the first time you’ve been wrong. We will forgive and continue to live with your errors.”

To which Carragher joked: “Nearly as bad as you telling me Sanchez was a good deal for Utd!!”

Sanchez was one of the most expensive transfer mistakes in history when he joined Manchester United from Arsenal in exchange for Henrikh Mkhitaryan in January 2018.

The Chilean was given the biggest wage in Premier League history for little return, and joined Inter Milan on a season-long loan in the summer.
