With the Reds having no european football this season, the domestic cups have extra importance says Carragher and so tomorrow's Carling Cup second round tie with League One side Exeter City is a big game.
"Exeter is a massive game for us. We haven't been in the Carling Cup at this stage for a long time," said the vice-captain.
"There's no Europe this season so everybody at the club is determined to do as well as we can in the domestic cups.
"We need to make sure we get through that before thinking about Bolton."
