Carragher acknowledges that Alexander-Arnold's goal celebration could have been a mix of joy and frustration due to the criticism he's received over his contract situation. However, he sees Alexander-Arnold as a happy player after scoring a vital goal.

Carragher thinks Bradley should start every game ahead of Alexander-Arnold because he's a young player who needs more experience. He believes that if Alexander-Arnold hasn't committed to the team for next season, he shouldn't be starting games.

Carragher wants Liverpool to assess Bradley's abilities and decide whether he's the right player for the job. He suggests that the team should either buy a backup player who can play multiple positions or bring in a new first-choice right-back, allowing Bradley to compete with them.

According to Carragher, the decision to keep Alexander-Arnold on the bench is not about giving him a farewell, but about giving Bradley the opportunity to gain experience and prove himself as a worthy replacement.
