Former Liverpool star, Jamie Carragher has declared that Romelu Lukaku would be the scapegoat in a war with Chelsea manager, Thomas Tuchel.

According to the Liverpool legend, it would be easier for Chelsea to replace Lukaku than Tuchel.

In a controversial interview with Sky Sports Italia, Lukaku had expressed his dissatisfaction with his situation at Stamford Bridge, saying he wanted to return to Inter Milan.

Tuchel dropped him for his side’s crunch 2-2 draw with Liverpool on Sunday with reports in England suggesting that Lukaku could push for a January transfer.

Carragher, a Liverpool legend believes it may now be easier to bring in a replacement for Lukaku instead of the ‘top-class’ Tuchel should it come down to a decision between the two.

“In the past, the players have always won against the manager. Right now, I think in terms of top managers in world football, I’d say there’s a dearth of them,” Carragher told Sky Sports.

“We’ve got three in the Premier League – Jurgen Klopp, Pep Guardiola and Tuchel.

“But look at the problems Man Utd are having right now in terms of their managerial situation. They still don’t know who they’re going to get at the end of the season or who is out there who can compete with these three.

“Right now, for Chelsea, even though they’ve had great success changing managers over the last 10-15 years.
