KSI sends message to Liverpool great Jamie Carragher as Ian Wright hits back at Arsenal critics
KSIKSI has sent a frank message to Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher after his reaction to the Reds’ loss at Arsenal, and the Gunners’ post-match celebrations.
Goals from Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard helped Arsenal to a vital 3-1 win over their Premier League title rivals, to move within two points of them at the top of the table.
After the match, Arsenal’s players celebrated buoyantly on the pitch with their fans, with captain Martin Odegaard getting behind the camera to take a photo of the club photographer in front of the supporters.
That didn’t sit well with Carragher in the Sky Sports studio, as the former defender turned TV pundit urged the Norway international to stop celebrating and ‘get down the tunnel’.
Fans on social media were quick to suggest Carragher was ‘rattled’ and after he changed his profiled picture on X to Odegaard holding the camera, KSI was quick to send him a brutal message.
The YouTube star tweeted: “Cry more,” followed by four crying emojis, much to the delight of his fans and Arsenal supporters.
Ian Wright hits back at Arsenal celebration critics
KSI wasn’t the only person to snap back at criticism of Arsenal’s celebrations. Gunners legend Ian Wright also fired back at the critics, as he launched into a brilliant rant on his social media channels.
He said: “The negativity towards my manager, man. What has he done apart from celebrating a goal and celebrating his team? Celebrating a team that is trying to beat these juggernauts, Liverpool and Manchester City.
“And because he’s celebrating? Because Martin Odegaard is taking a picture trying to kill the joy with Stuart the photographer? A lifelong Gunner.
“This man has been supporting Arsenal since he was five or something ridiculous like that. Just taking a picture in front of the north bank, what’s wrong with the captain doing that?
“It’s got nothing to do with the fact that we’ve just beaten Liverpool, that’s just an opportunity. Why is everybody trying to kill the joy? Don’t kill the joy.
“There’s so much of the season to go. As soon as Arsenal do anything they just come under a pile-on. It’s like we can’t have any joy.
“It’s like England at a World Cup or a Euros, as soon as England start doing well everyone is jumping on them!
“It’s the same thing that happens with Arsenal. Don’t let them spoil the joy. Keep doing what you’re doing. Whatever is going to be will be. Do not kill the joy.
“My manager, celebrate with passion like you do, because that’s what it’s about.
“People are expecting us to bottle it and lose these games and we’re going through it, we’re getting ourselves through, through injuries and everything, and the hatred is just so intense.
“Just leave us alone. You lot can take the p**s if it doesn’t happen like you normally do. Leave us alone in the joy.
“Enjoy Arsenal fans. Enjoy our moments. Because that’s all this game is: moments. And we had one tonight, we beat the great Liverpool who are top of the league. Up the Gunners!”
