Four Arsenal players decided to take a picture of themselves after Sunday's big win over Manchester City - and the photo drew the ire of former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Olivier Giroud, Aaron Ramsey and Per Mertesacker were half-dressed when they took a photo in the dressing room and posted it on their respective Instagram accounts, but Carragher, now a Sky Sports pundit, couldn't share in the celebration.

"It's winding me up, it's an absolute joke," said Carragher, who went on to suggest Arsenal's players should not have displayed such surprise after their win over the Premier League champions.

"It was one giant going to another giant. Of course celebrate, but it's nonsense, all of these team pics in dressing rooms. Normally, you have them with a cup! It's nonsense, and they need to stop doing it."

Great team effort, everyone worked their socks off #AFC
