Former Liverpool midfielder John Wark believes keeping Jamie Carragher fit will be key to the Reds maintaining their Premier League title challenge. Carragher, 30, along with keeper Pepe Reina, has played every minute of the Anfield club's league campaign so far.
Wark told BBC Radio Merseyside: "Jamie Carragher has been so consistent it's unreal, for me he deserves all the accolades he gets.
"He's our main defender and when he is not playing we will struggle."
"He's a great organiser, he gives his all and the fans love him," said Wark.
Due to fellow centre-half Martin Skrtel's knee injury and Alvaro Arbeloas' suspension last weekend Carragher filled in at right-back for the 2-0 win at Bolton on Saturday. Carraghers' commitment to the cause pleases Wark.
"He throws his body into some tackles, I just love the way he plays football and the spirit he plays it with."
