Jamie Carragher has called out Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta over comments made following his side's Champions League semi-final defeat to PSG.
Arsenal lost 3-1 on aggregate to the French champions after a 2-1 loss in Paris on Wednesday night.
The Gunners started strongly but were unable to make their dominance count with an early goal at the Parc des Princes.

Instead, PSG withstood heavy early pressure, with goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma making several vital saves, before opening the scoring themselves through Fabian Ruiz.
After the half-time interval, Arsenal gave away a penalty for handball by Myles Lewis-Skelly, but David Raya saved from Vitinha.
However, PSG would add to their advantage minutes later through Achraf Hakimi.
Arsenal scored what would prove to be a consolation through Bukayo Saka, but the Arsenal number seven's miss from close range on 80 minutes was their last clear-cut chance.
After the match, Arteta claimed that PSG's bench told him that the Gunners were 'much better than them', and added: "We were very close. Much closer than the result showed, but unfortunately we're out.
"I am very proud of the players, 100 per cent. I don't think there's been a better team [than us] in the competition from what I have seen, but we are out.

"This competition is about the boxes and in both boxes are the strikers and the goalkeepers and theirs was the best in both games."
Speaking on CBS Sports, though, Carragher took apart Arteta's comments as part of a brutal analysis and described them as 'nonsense'.
He explained: "Listen, when a manager speaks after the game, he's still emotional.
"I've seen another interview where he feels that Arsenal are the best team in the Champions League this season on what they've done. That's nonsense. They're not. They're not.

"He said something a couple of days ago about Liverpool's points tally. I think he's just an emotional manager at the manager."
