Former Manchester United captain Gary Neville pictured in Arsenal shirt as Premier League promise made

The pair were on punditry duties for the dramatic 3-3 draw between the Gunners and Southampton at the Emirates, with Carragher patrolling the ground beforehand to spot some vintage shirts.

The former Liverpool man found a fan with a version of Arsenal's green 1982 away jersey before switching to a picture of Neville and his brother, Phil, sporting the same shirt as kids.
