Former Spurs player Jamie O’Hara was left furious after being told about it by talkSPORT presenter Laura Woods.
He said: “Why would you want to swap shirt in a game where you have been completely embarrassed?
“That for me just sums up modern day football players at the moment. Do you think Roy Keane or Steven Gerrard would want to swap shirts after a massive game when you just got pumped, are you joking?
“Can you imagine Ally McCoist asking for a shirt after a massive Old Firm match, ‘I want to swap shirts in the tunnel.’”
O’Hara continued: “These footballers, I don’t know what they have turned into, but they ain’t proper footballers.
