Jamie Carragher Jamie Redknapp

No pundit ever likes to be interrupted while making a point, but former Liverpool and England defender and current Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher had one of the more visceral reactions you’ll ever see Sunday. While Carragher was trying to discuss Liverpool’s defense in their 2-1 win over Burnley, colleague Jamie Redknapp (another ex-Liverpool player and long-time pundit) broke in to say that Liverpool gave Burnley too much respect. Carragher fumed on-camera, and then criticized Redknapp for interrupting him. This then led to quite a funny impression of Carragher being interrupted, which Carragher endorsed Monday. For context, here’s the original Sky Sports clip (the prelude to it can be seen here):

And here’s the impression, from Darren Farley:

With Carragher’s tweet:

The impression is quite well done (“Will! You just! Let me finish!”) and it’s good that Carragher can see the humor in this. As for Redknapp, he hasn’t tweeted since Feb. 4, so at least he isn’t interrupting anyone on social media. Not interrupting anyone seems like good advice, though, and judging by the reaction here, Carragher should be very low on the list of people to interrupt.
