Tottenham star Richarlison has taken a subtle jibe at Jamie Carragher on Twitter after the former Liverpool defender slammed his showboating skills on Sunday.
Tottenham Hotspur secured an impressive 2-0 win against Nottingham Forest on Sunday but it was Richarlison showboating skills that seemed to have grabbed a fair bit of headlines.
Tottenham Summer signing Richarlison was felled by Brennan Johnson in the closing stages for his showboating skills in the Forest half, which Sky Sports pundit Carragher had little sympathy for.
“It’s not right, you can’t just go and boot people, but what’s he doing?” yelled Carragher on commentary as Richarlison juggled the ball.
Carragher was displeased with what he had seen from Richarlison at the City Ground.
“He just winds people up that lad, he winds me up. You’re not condoning that, but….. big Premier League game passions are high and then someone starts taking the mick.”
Replying to Carragher, Richarlison tagged him to the video on his Twitter page, so that he can see it all over again.

Richarlison and Jamie Carragher Twitter Feud.
Jamie Carragher and Richarlison have shared some memorable ‘Twitter beef’ in the past few months.
Back in May, after receiving criticism from the Sky Sports pundit, former Everton forward Richarlison took to Twitter after the Toffees guaranteed their Premier League status for another season with a 3-2 win over Crystal Palace.
He wrote: “@Carra23 wash your mouth before you talk about me and Everton and I don’t respect you.” – a tweet that actually earned praise from the former Liverpool centre-back
I actually quite like this, if Twitter was about when I was a player I’m sure I would’ve called pundits out quite a lot!! https://t.co/skfIpPCQhQ

Richarlison is still looking for his first Premier League start for Antonio Conte’s side. After his positive role in Sunday’s victory, he will be hoping he gets the nod against West Ham on Wednesday.
