Carragher earns Rafa plaudits
30 Mar 2007 - 07:46:43
Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez has hailed Reds centre-back Jamie Carragher as one of the leading defenders in Europe.
The 29-year-old stopper has been one of the inspirations behind Liverpool's cup successes in recent times, with Benitez aware of the importance of Carragher to his side.
He said: "For me Jamie is one of the best defenders in Europe. He is always focused on the game, always trying to learn.
"That is the key for me because each season he improves a little bit. He is always listening and that is one of the reasons he can keep improving.
"It is the same every training session, always working hard, always trying to improve.
"He reminds me of a hunting dog, when I want something specific done in defence he is very willing to learn.
"As a defender he is someone you do not want to play against, to have marking you."
