Jamie Carragher: Liverpool's Victory at Tottenham Sends Strong Message in Premier League Title Race - A Display of Championship Quality

Jamie Carragher has described Liverpool's impressive 6-3 victory over Tottenham as a "champions' performance," sending a strong message to other potential title contenders in the Premier League.

Following Chelsea's 0-0 draw with Everton earlier on Sunday afternoon, Liverpool opened up a four-point gap on Enzo Maresca's side and will now sit in first place heading into Christmas.

Carragher has since labelled the victory as a "statement" to other clubs in the title race following the dominant performance away from home.

"It felt like a really big game," Carragher said on Super Sunday.

"Liverpool were outstanding and if you are watching as Chelsea or Arsenal, you are thinking, 'this team will take some stopping'.

"It felt like a statement win - a performance of champions-elect. They were so dominant."

Carra: Slot was desperate for Tottenham to play that way

The former Liverpool defender went on to speak about Arne Slot's pre-match comments regarding Tottenham and their style of play, where he praised the "great" work Ange Postecoglou was doing and shut down claims that his style is "too attacking".

"People thought he was defending Postecoglou, I don't believe that," Carragher continued.

"He was desperate for Tottenham to play the same way. It was obvious. Liverpool could have scored 10!

"It was complete domination from minute one to 36. It could have been anything today.

"The scoreline flatters Tottenham, it could have been a lot worse. Tottenham have been absolutely battered."

Alexander-Arnold warned over Madrid move

It was Trent Alexander-Arnold's incisive pass to Luis Diaz that kickstarted the rout at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and Carragher finished by talking about the England international's future, with his contract set to expire at the end of the season.

Alexander-Arnold has been heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid but Carragher has advised against the move, stating it could tarnish his legacy as a homegrown talent.

He said: "It's more than a football decision. It's about his legacy at Liverpool and how he is seen. Do you want to be seen like [Steven] Gerrard or [Steve] McManaman?

"He went to Real Madrid and won cups but he is not adored.

"As a local player, Trent has been there 20 years. I don't think it would be nice to have a feeling of leaving on a free. I guarantee Liverpool supporters will feel that way.

"Things are expected of you as a local player. I think to leave Liverpool is difficult as a local player.

"I wanted to leave in the right way so they remembered me in the right way.

"If he stays, he will be remembered as one of the best to play for the club and not far behind Gerrard."
