Article

James Lee Duncan Carragher (/ˈkærəɡər/ KARR-ə-ghər; 28 January 1978) is an English football analyst and former player who played as a defender. A one-club man, he was Liverpool's vice-captain for ten years and has made the second-most appearances for the club, the most in the Premier League era. Carragher is currently advisor of National League North club Marine.

Carragher started his career at the Liverpool Academy, making his professional debut in the 1996–97 season, and becoming a first-team starter the following season. Having initially played as a full-back, the arrival of manager Rafael Benítez in 2004 saw Carragher move to become a centre-back, where he found his best form. He made his 737th and final appearance for Liverpool on 19 May 2013. His honours with the club total two FA Cups, three Football League Cups, two FA Charity/Community Shields, one UEFA Champions League, one UEFA Cup and two UEFA Super Cups.
