Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has opened up about the club missing out on the 2014 league title.

The Reds were top of the Premier League and favorites to clinch the title for the first time in decades.

However, captain Steven Gerrard famously slipped against Chelsea and Demba Ba scored for a 1-0 Blues win late in the season, which dented the Reds' title charge.

Carragher blames Simon Mignolet for Ba's infamous goal, not his close friend Gerrard.

He told the Stick to Football podcast, brought to you by Sky Bet: "I still blame Simon Mignolet for that goal with Demba Ba.

He was so straight going through on goal, there was nowhere he could put it except through the keeper's legs.

He was running so straight on goal that I think it was difficult to score and there was nowhere else he could go."
