Liverpool stalwart Jamie Carragher says that the fact that they finally managed to get the better of Manchester United on Saturday should send out a warning to the rest of the league.
An own goal by Wes Brown combined with a opportunistic strike Ryan Babel snapped a terrible run for Liverpool against their arch rivals, and Carragher is now genuinely convinced that their 18 years title drought will finally come to an end by the time all is said and done this campaign.
"It's a great result for us," trumpeted Carragher on the club’s official website. "Not just for the three points, but for the belief and confidence it will give us. We've just beaten the best side in Europe and a team we have a lot of respect for. It should do wonders for our confidence.
"For too long we've been off the pace in the league and it's been all about Man United and Chelsea. Now we've gone to the top of the league and put a bit of breathing space between ourselves and United," added the ultra-reliable defender, who was a stand-in captain for Steven Gerrard who started on the bench.
"We'll see at the end of the season what this result has done for us but hopefully it will spur us on."
