Manchester City were perfectly right to celebrate in the manner they did after defeating Manchester United 2-1 last Sunday, according to Arsenal legend and pundit Ian Wright.

United boss Jose Mourinho took slight at City's post-match celebrations with their fans and he let the visitors know about his opinion in the tunnel.

The argument escalated into a fracas between players and coaches, but Wright believes Mourinho was out of line complaining about the celebration in the first place.

"It's just hilarious on so many levels, I don't think you can blame City," the pundit told BBC Radio 5 live.

"People are accusing them of not having class, they are saying you don't know how to act when you win, but you've got to take into consideration they have just broken a record, the 14 wins, against their biggest rivals."

Wright added: "There's a long way to go in the season.

"Maybe Jose should have said can you hear that next door? Can you see what they're doing? We've got to make sure that we ram this back down their throats instead of turning it into 'Milkgate'. I find it hilarious."
