Liverpool's players and staff presented Jamie Carragher with a leaving card with a difference as the centre-back prepared to play his final game for the club.

The 35-year-old said goodbye to the Kop on an emotional afternoon at Anfield following the Reds' 1-0 win over Queens Park Rangers on Sunday.

Earlier in the week, at the club's Melwood training complex, he became the proud recipient of a specially commissioned painting by local artist Joe Forrest.

Brendan Rodgers, Jamie's dad Phil and Mike Lepic of the 23 Foundation, posed for pictures with the canvas, which features the famous Liverpool skyline behind a drawing of the defender marshalling the Reds' back-line.

Each member of the Liverpool squad, coaching and backroom staff, added their own personal messages and signatures to the painting.
