Liverpool celebrity Carragher's remarks last weekend sparked dissatisfaction among Arsenal fans, who accused Carragher of having double standards. In the 7th round of the Premier League, Chelsea beat Liverpool 2-1 in stoppage time, and Maresca ran wildly to celebrate. When judging the ball, Carragher said that he "liked" this way of celebration, which has been questioned by some gun fans.
They pointed out that after Arsenal's 3-1 victory over Liverpool in February 2024, Odegaux had exchanged roles with club photographers to celebrate, when Carragher criticized Odegaux for "returning to the locker room as soon as possible." Therefore, Arsenal fans believe that Carragher's praise for Chelsea exposed his bias against the Gunners.
Carragher responded: "The game in which Arsenal won 3-1 against Liverpool, there is no suspense if the winner is about 15 minutes left. Since there is no final victory, such post-match celebration is a bit too much. And you (Arsenal) are still behind Liverpool in the standings.
" And what about Chelsea's game against Liverpool last Saturday? Maresca's reaction was made at the moment of the goal - it was the last shot of the whole game, and it was a game that Chelsea thought there would be no chance to win. So the reaction at the end of the game is very natural. If you have a stoppage time kill on the defending champion, anyone will celebrate like crazy.
"And Arsenal's situation at that time was: you did win a wonderful game, but we're talking about the scene where the game had ended for several minutes and everyone was still taking photos with their cameras. I was thinking 'Wow, calm down'. This is not an anti-Arsenal media argument at all, the key is that Chelsea scored a winning goal.
"I think the Arsenal fans on the Internet are a bit sensitive, but Chelsea fans are almost the same. Arsenal has a lot of voice online, which is not a problem, after all, their fan base is huge. But they seem to feel that the whole world is targeting themselves. ”
