Everton have a 'mental block' against Liverpool and they can't think about winning trophies until they get over it, says Jamie Carragher

Everton must overcome their 'mental block' and start winning derby games before they can start thinking about winning major trophies. That is the verdict of Sky Sports pundit and Sportsmail columnist Jamie Carragher.

The Toffees succumbed to a listless defeat at Anfield in Saturday's Merseyside derby, meaning their winless run at the home of their greatest rivals will extend to 18 years before next season.

While Ross Barkley, Romelu Lukaku and Leighton Baines came in for criticism following the 3-1 reverse, Carragher believes there is a small-club mentality at Goodison Park that appears to be holding them back in this particular fixture.
