During his appearance on Monday Night Football, Carragher expressed optimism, suggesting that Arsenal’s defensive prowess gives them a shot at clinching the title.

This comes after Arsenal’s 3-1 victory over Liverpool on Sunday, narrowing the gap between them and the league leaders to just two points.
It was an impressive defensive performance by Mikel Arteta’s side.
“They were better than Liverpool in all areas but the big thing that stood out for me was how strong they were defensively.
“I never felt at any point in that game that Liverpool looked threatening or that a goal was coming. Liverpool got a fortunate goal, we know that.
“I said after the game that the result was better for Manchester City than Arsenal but Arsenal do have a slim chance of winning the title.
“That chance comes from how good they are defensively,” Carragher said.
