iverpool and former England defender Jamie Carragher is to cover action in South Africa as part of talkSPORT’s broadcast team for this year’s World Cup.

Carragher will broadcast alongside station regular Adrian Durham.



Commenting on Carragher’s signing with the station, Durham said: “I cannot wait to be sat alongside Jamie, someone who was at the last World Cup as a player, who will be able to convey just what it’s like to be in the World Cup cauldron.�

Carragher added: “I truly believe that the talent within the England squad, under Capello’s guidance, can bring home the World Cup. I’m excited at joining talkSPORT, Adrian and the listeners as England embark on what we hope will be an historic year.�

Jamie Carragher won’t be taking a fee for his appearances - instead he has asked that talkSPORT make a donation to his charity, The 23 Foundation

Well played Jamie!

Could he be one of the last boy scouts, action heroes?

How many of his fellow professionals would not accept a fee for their services?

Always respected him and now even more so!

Too right!
An absolute mountain of a man.

Wasn't particulary interested in the world cup until I heard this on Talk Sport the other night.
Any of you hear his interview? He's really got a great sense of humour and will be a great asset to the broadcating team.

Well done Carra, you are a true legend and generous gent.

true legend

With that attitude he'll make a great manager! All he needs is a decent mentor!

Most definately.

Wonder what odds we could get on him to take over within 10 years?

thaqts desdly isnt i? fair play to him.

although i imagine there will be complaints because everytime he is asked for his opinion, we'll hear him clearing his nose.;-)

lolllllll.......what an amazing sense of humour u got flamey,...

argh that means i will have to listen to talkshite now *sighs*

flamey other than hearing him cleaning his nose the other commentator might run away as Carra often does.blocking one of the nostrils with finger and pushing the thing out...hehe
