I bet it's a great book. I'd buy it if the money wasn't going to him. Maybe i can convince my housemate who's a liverpool fan to buy it.
I don't really dislike him and i rate him but i don't agree with putting club before country but i can see why he's a Liverpool legend.

He didn't.  For years he travelled all over with the England squad, not playing, or playing for 10 minutes out of position. 

He put his family and his career above being part of the England squad - he wasn't playing for England.  It wasn't a 'club v country' debate at all.


I think it goes something like "after i missed the penalty all i kept thinking was at least i didn't miss it for Liverpool"

The fact he prefers his club to country has little to do with his reasons for retirement. They're seperate issues.
I never commented on the retirement. Just that he put his country first.

Fair enough but anyone really into their club will rarely put country first. That applies to fans too. There was a thread on here about club vs country a year or so back and the majority picked club first. I dont know why when a player admits what most fans would agree with he gets hammered for it.

I agree they would. It's just a personal choice. Given the choice between one World Cup win for England and Sheffield Wednesday winning the Champions League every year of my remaining life i'd take the World Cup win. So although i respect carragher i'm not personally a fan of him and his choices.

Do you honestly think he wrote the book ??

Yes. He goes into that too and his choice of ghost writer and the reasons for his choice.

LMAO, so you say you honestly think he wrote the book, and then say that he got someone else to write it for him.

Good player, not great.  Not exactly the sharpest knife in the cutlery drawer however.

Based on what?  The fact he's got a scouse accent?

lol, isnt that enough?
