Reports in today’s news suggest that Jamie Carragher is ready to retire from his international career to concentrate on football at Liverpool.
The 29 year old has been a bit part player for England, unfancied by successive England managers, despite his hero status at Anfield.
According to the Mail on Sunday a source close to Jamie said:
“Jamie does not want to sound like a big-time Charlie.
“He just feels that at this stage in his career it would be better if he concentrated his efforts on helping Liverpool become the No 1 team in England again.
“He has always regarded it as a tremendous honour to represent his country…but things have to end some time and he thinks this might be a good time to bow out.”
