Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher was scathing in his criticism of Tottenham (Peter Powell/PA)Jamie Carragher claims Tottenham “bottled it” in Sunday’s Carabao Cup final defeat to Manchester City. The former Liverpool defender accused Tottenham’s players of “lacking courage” and said interim manager Ryan Mason could not be blamed for their performance. “It’s nothing to do with Ryan Mason at all,” Carragher said on Monday Night Football on Sky Sports. Carragher said Tottenham’s players lost their nerve and failed to stick to their game plan, reverting instead to a long-ball game. “Their players didn’t have the courage to take the ball and let their goalkeeper and centre-backs play long.”PA Media
