Jamie Carragher issues daunting Invincibles warning to Arsenal despite Liverpool failure

“And not necessarily just that season. There was a two or three-year period from 2002-2004 and I think in 2003 Man United won the league, but if I’m being honest, I still felt Arsenal were the team in that year. I think they threw it away in that season.

“It wasn’t just because they were so good technically, they were so big, powerful, quick, strong. You always went on to the pitch wondering which area of the game you are better in.

“And normally if the team is really good technically, you can outfight them, outmuscle them. But with that Arsenal team, it was such a powerful team as well as pace-wise.

“The unbeaten achievement – you are always going to lose games in a Premier League season. You can get so close like Liverpool did this season and the Watford thing happened. I do feel like the last couple of years, teams are getting closer.
