'He did say': Alan Shearer shares how Ian Wright reacted to Newcastle United's win over Arsenal

In the green room at the Premier League productions office on Saturday Alan Shearer was sat beside Ian Wright watching Newcastle United take on Arsenal.

There should have been a live feed from the room online watching their reactions throughout the game, it would have done bits online.

Fortunately there was a camera there to capture the moment Newcastle United scored which caught Alan Shearer calling Anthony Gordon's ball in to Alexander Isak a "90's cross".

In that clip, Ian Wright was eerily quiet, barely reacting to Newcastle grabbing the lead, but it turns out that wasn't always the case.

Alan Shearer says that Ian Wright said the best team won on Saturday

Speaking on The Rest Is Football podcast, Gary Lineker asked Shearer how Wrighty was during the game with him being Mr Arsenal and not exactly known for having a reserved nature.

"He was shouting, swearing everything. He was going mad, he was.

"He did say he thought the best team won and that Newcastle deserved to win and he was very disappointed in Arsenal, how flat they were and how they got dragged down and Newcastle didn't really allow them to play their game.

"I thought it was a really impressive, really good performance from Newcastle."

Newcastle have a habit of ruining Ian Wright's birthday

If Mr Arsenal says Newcastle were the better team then you know we did something right (Wright).

Micah Richards points out after this that it's Ian Wright's birthday today (Monday) which means that Newcastle absolutely ruined his birthday two years in a row. Unlucky.

We still love Wrighty though, he gets a pass despite being an Arsenal fan.
