Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has slammed Newcastle United's players after their thrashing at Southampton. Speaking on Sky Sports' Monday Night Football, Carragher, attacked Newcastle's lacklustre display at St Mary's.
"There's lots of talk about Alan Pardew but some of those players are a disgrace.
"This isn't an end of season game. This is four or five games into a season.
"I played against some of these players towards the end of my time with Liverpool. We beat them 6-0 at St James' Park. The performance is shocking.
"Fans go there and you all want to see players do great things but you also want to see a bit of graft, a bit of heart, a bit of intensity.
"For Newcastle to be seen like that now, for the last few years, it's a disgrace."
