Carragher injury blow for Liverpool

LIVERPOOL face the prospect of having to save their season without their two most senior players after vice-captain Jamie Carragher dislocated his shoulder during yesterday’s 2-1 defeat at Tottenham to join captain Steven Gerrard on the sidelines.

Gerrard is already out of action for a total of three or four weeks with a hamstring injury suffered on England duty and now Carragher has fallen victim to the Anfield curse, too.

He had to leave the field clutching his arm in the 85th minute and manager Roy Hodgson says the diagnosis is not good.
