'He pisses me off' Jamie Carragher hits out at Richarlison in Tottenham's win at Forest

Jamie Carragher has admitted Richarlison 'irritates me' as the Liverpool legend hits the Brazilian again in Tottenham's 2-0 triumph over Nottingham Forest. The Spurs striker prompted an angry reaction from Carragher after he was slammed by Brennan Johnson after showboating in the dying minutes of the game.

Moments after the Tottenham striker helped seal his side's three points with a lavish assist for Harry Kane's second, the colorful Richarlison found himself embroiled in controversy once again. With minutes remaining in regular time, the 25-year-old kicked the ball down the left line and performed some maneuvers before attempting to pass to a teammate.

The Brazilian's stray ball was then intercepted by Forest striker Johnson, who then slammed the Spurs No 9 after a heavy first touch. Richarlison was then offloaded by Johnson's teammate Neco Williams.

After the flashpoint, Carragher openly expressed his disdain for Richarlison - a player whose attitude he has been quick to criticize in the past. The Sky Sports commentator said: "It pisses people off. You can't do that. But what does it do?

"What do you expect from him [Brennan Johnson]? Yeah, you don't tolerate that, but... big Premier League game, passions are running high, superstars take the mic."

Carragher was previously embroiled in a war of words with Richarlison when the latter was with Everton last season. The pair's feud was apparently sparked after the former Liverpool defender yelled at Richarlison to 'get up!' after being seen faking an injury in last season's Merseyside derby at Anfield.
