EXCLUSIVE: READ THE CARRA AWARDS 2008
Jimmy Rice 31 December 2008
It's that time of year again when we ask one of the Liverpool squad to dish
the dirt on their teammates in an alternative review of the past 12 months.
This year, after handing over duties to Peter Crouch last time round, Jamie
Carragher returns with a no-holds-barred assessment of 2008.
We ask the vice-captain to name his player and young player of the year
before moving on to more pressing matters - like who hogs the mirror at
Melwood and who has been his nightmare roommate during the year that was.
Didi Hamann and Jermaine Pennant have both fallen victim to Carra's unique
wit in the last few years - this time it's the turn of a certain Dutch
international.
Look away now, Dirk...
Okay Jamie, who's your player of the year?
There are a few candidates for that in 2008. I mean, it has obviously got to
be Torres with the impact he has made, and also what he did for Spain in the
summer. It was a magnificent achievement. But there are probably another two
or three players who are very close - obviously Stevie Gerrard is always
there or thereabouts. He's scored a lot of goals and had that great
relationship with Torres. I think Mascherano has come in well and also
Skrtel.
Young player - 21 or under?
I probably have to look at the reserve team really because Gary Ablett has
done a great job. They won the league last season - they've got to take a lot
of credit for that. Darby and Spearing have done really well again. Plessis
has been in that squad and Insua has done really well but I think it's
probably Nemeth. He got a lot of goals in the reserve league.
Pick your five-a-side team of the year from the squad…
Reina, Gerrard, Torres...can you pick yourself?
Yes...
Okay, me. So how many is that? One more? Need a midfielder, don't I? Alonso.
Who's your unsung hero of 2008?
Arbeloa. He's someone who doesn't get talked about a lot as he's playing
full-back and it's probably the least glamorous position on the pitch, but
he's come in and displaced Steve Finnan, who was a great player for
Liverpool. He's come in and done his job very quietly but effectively.
Best goal of 2008?
There's a few Torres and Gerrard ones, isn't there? The Torres one against
Arsenal in the Champions League where he just turned and hit it was a very
important goal. Being at Anfield, at the Kop end, on a great European night
in the Champions League quarter finals - I'll have to go for that one.
Not your goal against Middlesbrough?
I always think mine are the best, so that doesn't count.
Okay, moving on slightly - who's the cleverest member of the Liverpool squad?
Well, Dossena reads a book and wears glasses. I think he's trying to make out
he's quite clever but I don't think that counts - I think it's just a bluff.
Probably someone like Hyypia.
We've had our fair share of 'Triggers' at Liverpool over the years - is there
anyone who fills that role at the moment?
Oh yeah, Dirk. He's unbelievable. Every day in training the referee will give
the rules out and he'll just continually break them throughout the session.
They talk about these Dutch players knowing football, but Babel is pretty
much the same as well. Dutch players are supposed to know different positions
and total football, but that's a load of nonsense!
Who's the most Scouse foreigner?
Reina and Alonso are really good lads and they mix well with the Scousers.
They really embrace being a part of Liverpool. They seem to know a lot about
the history of the club and the people and they seem to have settled well.
They've been here a little longer than a lot of the others but they are two
who have really mixed in well and I think they get to know everything that's
going on in Liverpool.
Who is the funniest member of the squad?
Pennant, he's a lively character. Pepe likes a laugh and a joke, and so do I.
There's a few, actually. I've calmed down a little bit now because I'm a
family man - I used to be mad years ago. Probably Pennant really, he's the
one who's always got a story to tell.
Nicest member of the squad?
Benayoun, he seems to get on well with everyone. He speaks a few different
languages and is always laughing and joking, and I don't think I've ever seen
him lose his temper or anything on the training pitch or off it. He's a
really nice fella.
Nightmare roommate?
My nightmare roommate would probably be Pennant, because I don't think he
gets much sleep so he'd probably like to stay up a little bit later. Stay
well clear of him.
And who's your ideal roommate?
The one I've got at the moment, actually: Stevie Gerrard. He puts my bags
away, makes me cups of tea and makes my bed in the morning, so he's the ideal
one.
Who's the biggest moaner?
Me.
Best trainer?
Probably Stevie. He's got the most ability in training. There's a few players
who work very hard. Alonso does very well in training as well.
Most skilful?
Well, the three most technically gifted in our team are probably Torres,
Gerrard and Alonso. All three have got different abilities, so you'll have to
pick out of them, I'm not picking.
Okay, who has got the worst haircut?
Fellaini's isn't great at Everton, is it? But here at Liverpool? Well, Dirk's
is bad, he puts this yellow gel on it, he takes it everywhere with him.
And who's the vainest player?
There'll be a few surprises in that, actually. Stevie spends a little bit too
much time in front of the mirror for my liking, considering he's from Huyton.
I'd probably say Stevie, he's just got to pull back on the reins on that type
of thing.
Who's the worst dancer now Crouchie's gone?
He was the best dancer! We had our Christmas meal and Degen was up dancing
and didn't do well. [Laughs] I'm surprised he never got injured! He was up
dancing and it didn't go down too good.
Best dancer?
The best dancer is probably El Zhar, he's got a few moves.
Okay, who's the worst dresser, Jamie?
There's a few. Dirk is bad, Plessis is bad.
What do they wear?
Plessis comes in with these big, baggy, multi-coloured tracksuits - I don't
even know what it is. Dirk is just Dirk, isn't he? He's just like Hamann;
they just don't care - scruffs. I'd probably say Dirk.
And the best dresser?
Me.
Who's got the best and worst taste in music?
The best is...me and Stevie are pretty similar. The lads put their iPod on
before a game, I'd never do that but his [Stevie's] is alright. Dirk's is
okay, actually. I'm just trying to think about whose has been on - think
Babel's was poor when he put it on. All that rap stuff.
Who has been your toughest opponent of the year?
There's a few who are always tough. Your Drogbas, Adebayors, Rooneys - people
like that. I'd probably say all of them, really. When you play against that
type of player, you know you've been in a really tough game. Sometimes you
get the better of them and sometimes they get the better of you, but no
matter when you play against them it's very tough.
Have you got a favourite away ground?
I love the Emirates now, I think that's a superb stadium. I hope we can have
something like that in the future. Old Trafford is a magnificent stadium,
it's got to be said. I always like playing at Goodison, me - the derby games.
It's a typical, old-fashioned stadium in a way because the crowd are right on
top of you, it's a great atmosphere and we tend to do quite well there, so
I'd probably say Goodison Park.
What is the best chant, song or banner that you've seen all year?
There's been a few of them on the Kop, hasn't there? I think the Torres song
is good, my son is always singing that one.
Does he do the bounce?
Well, I don't know because he's only been to a couple of away games. He was
probably doing it at Man City when we got back to 3-2. I mean, we're probably
the best supporters in the world for making up chants - I don't know how they
come up with them.
Can you hear what they're singing when you're on the pitch?
I can hear most of it but I have to get it fully relayed to me, the full
words off a few fans and all that. My son is teaching me a little bit of it
as well, so yeah, someone has come up with a great song there.

Huyton的笑點在哪裡啊？
