David Seaman was surprised to hear Jamie Carragher’s comments on Arsenal skipper Martin Odegaard on Sunday. 

Jamie Carragher was left unimpressed by Arsenal’s post-match celebrations after picking up a 3-1 over Liverpool.

The Liverpool legend reacted to Martin Odegaard taking a picture with the club’s photographer, Stuart MacFarlane, after the game.

He said on Sky Sports: “You’ve won a game, you’ve got three points – get down the tunnel.”

Gary Neville also labelled the post-match antics as ‘immaturity’ from Arsenal’s point of view.

But David Seaman has backed Odegaard and admitted he was laughing after hearing Carragher’s comments.

The Arsenal legend reacted to Carragher’s comments on the latest episode of Seaman Says. 

“I did have a little chuckle last night when I was listening to Jamie Carragher,” Seaman said. “Just lost have you, Jamie? [he laughed].

“I was like ‘Oh my god’ so you’ve never celebrated? And Stuart, the photographer, has been there since I was there. Everybody loves Stuart. He’s so passionate about Arsenal.

“He’s the guy that did the team talk before the Spurs game. So, he knows everything about Arsenal, and loves everything about Arsenal. I liked that little interaction.”

It was a huge win for Arsenal on Sunday and they have every right to celebrate how they see fit, particularly their £30 million skipper Odegaard.

A loss would have seen Arteta’s side fall eight points behind league leaders Liverpool, so there was plenty riding on the game.

Arsenal faced similar criticism over their post-match celebrations last term, while Arteta’s touchline behaviour has also been called into question.

But after securing a huge win in terms of their title aspirations, you can understand why the Gunners were keen to enjoy the moment. It was also a dominant performance from Arteta’s side which puts them right back in the mix for the title.
