Chelsea told they 'need a new goalkeeper' as Jamie Carragher blasts Robert Sanchez for Curtis Jones' Liverpool winner

Jones was the hero for Arne Slot's Liverpool as the 23-year-old scored the winner against Chelsea in the 51st minute and also won the penalty for the Reds' opener. Liverpool legend and Sky Sports pundit Carragher has now blamed Sanchez for not being commanding in his box after a lethargic Reece James allowed Jones through on goal.

Speaking on Sky Sports after the game, Carragher said: "It's so poor from Chelsea's point. Reece James ambles in there. The goalkeeper is so poor. It was a poor touch from Curtis Jones really, and it's poor from the goalkeeper, Robert Sanchez.

"Sanchez has got to go and win that ball. Jones should be terrified that a goalkeeper is coming towards him. You have got to get there and hope it hits you in the face and you keep it out. Chelsea need a new goalkeeper if they want to get back to where they want to be."

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca himself talked about Sanchez's performance after the match but revealed that he was happy with the Spaniard's showing at Anfield. He said: "I'm very happy with Robert, he's doing fantastic with us. Not only in building from the back but also making saves."

The Blues will now take on Panathinaikos in the Conference League on Thursday, October 24 as they will look to return to winning ways.
