Bergkamp saw red five minutes after Keown

"The law doesn't differentiate between whether you make contact or not.

"The fact that you attempt to do something like that is punishable by a red card for violent conduct."

On Carragher:
"Something appeared to be thrown from the crowd that I think hit Jamie. He responded by picking it up and throwing it back into the crowd, and that is a case of violent conduct punishable by a red card.

"Overall, we took the appropriate action during the game and I am satisfied with what we did."

Liverpool boss Phil Thompson:
"Jamie said he was hit by a coin, and other objects were being thrown, which you cannot accept.

Carragher lost his cool

"But neither can Jamie do what he did; you cannot have that. Two wrongs do not make a right, and I have told him so.

"He let himself down, he let his team-mates down and he let the club down in doing that.

"He was angry and frustrated about getting hit by something, and what he did was out of character, but that still doesn't make it right.

"Arsenal had just had two players sent off, so there was a need for calm heads."

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger:
"I'd like to pay to see a game like I saw today if I was a neutral supporter who just likes football.

"Nobody who loves football can say that was a dirty game or that both teams did not try to play football."
