Puts him 9th on the all time list

From Wiki:

1. Ian Callaghan 857
2= Ray Clemence 665
2= Emlyn Hughes 665
4. Ian Rush 660
5. Phil Neal 650
6. Tommy Smith 638
7. Bruce Grobbelaar 628
8. Alan Hansen 620
9. Jamie Carragher 599
10. Chris Lawler 549

So if Carragher stays a regular this year and next he could make it up to number 2 by the end of next season

[Darkon]

He will probably get to be second on that list

A legend himself, although often not mentioned in that league because of Gerrard taking the focus!

[-V-]

Thats amazing. 600! All down to his versatility, from a young age he has been able to play all across the back 4 for us wherever we have needed him to play. Incredible achievement

[lickedlollipop]

[Kinell]

He will make the top 4, I can assure it.

I'll be shocked if he doesn't make it to number 2. Still got three good years left.

Callaghan's record is ridiculous btw.

Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has revealed he turned down an invitation from Fabio Capello to return to the England set-up.

Carragher, 31, won 34 caps for his country but announced his international retirement in the summer of 2007.

However, with encouragement from club captain Steven Gerrard he initially agreed to meet Capello's assistant Franco Baldini, but changed his mind at the last moment.

Carragher told The Times: "I was supposed to meet Franco Baldini for a chat a year ago and at the last minute I pulled out.

"It was more out of courtesy that I was going to do it. Stevie had mentioned it to me a couple of times, so I agreed to the meeting, but at the last minute I just didn't want to do it.

"I don't think my situation would change if I got back in the squad. John Terry and Rio Ferdinand are first choice and they are two of the best central defenders in the world.

"Maybe I would have won 10 more caps over the last couple of years because Rio and John have missed a few games, but you couldn't ask for a better centre-half pairing than those two going into the World Cup."

Carragher also said he would rather leave Liverpool than play for them when he is past his best.

"I wouldn't want to get to 34 or 35 with Liverpool and have people thinking, 'He's well gone."' he added.

"So I do think about whether it would be better to go while I'm still at a decent level and play out my days at another club.

"I do worry about maybe playing in big games for Liverpool and perhaps costing the side, and I also think about not playing every week and whether I could do that.

"Over the next year or two I'll probably have a decision to make. I'd love to stay at Liverpool - that's what I want to do - but there are different things that I think about that may compromise that."

Sometimes I wonder about this place

Could be the last of a dying breed, a local lad who came through the system and largely made it on guts and character.

Unbelievable achievement

Exactly lets face it the internet is 99% full of useless windbags who have about as much class as a vulture ehh I am lost for an appropriate anachronism but you get the idea

****ing Carra, blood guts mud and Liverpool Through and Through somebody i could be very good mates with ... My kind of mother ****er .. not like some of the dip ****s who said he was not good enough for Liverpool when you used to play RB or when he was first mooted as an idea for CB .. oh how they laughed the dozy douchebags .. or the ****ing oxygen theifs who question him now ... i think hes earnt some respite due to a dip in form

Will never forget him playing through the pain and exhaustion barrier in Istanbul ...

And some numptys question about giving him a another contract ... i was not joking .. give it to him on a silver ****ing Tray the Man is a living Legend .. He has given everything to this wonderful club on and off the pitch

We all dream of a team of Carra's

Phenomenal achievement given the era that Carra has played in. There some great players on that list and there are a few names on there who would have been part of a 16 man SQUAD and no sub/1 sub era. Some feat that Carra lad, keep going!!!
