Former Rangers defender Calvin Bassey couldn't resist issuing a cheeky response to Arsenal trolls.
The Fulham centre-back had faced chants of "Who are ya?" from supporters at the Emirates on Tuesday night.
Bassey was a substitute for Fulham and was warming up in the corner when he and home supporters exchanged banter as the match was being played.

The Nigerian internationalist laughed off the light-hearted chants as he stated his name to the Arsenal supporters.
Bassey continued to warm up before jokingly lowering his shorts and slapping his backside toward supporters.
Arsenal fans appreciated the joke exchange as Bassey was applauded for his jovial nature on the sidelines while the match continued in the background.

Unfortunately for Bassey - who was on the bench for the whole match - Arsenal claimed a 2-1 win with a Rodrigo Muniz strike in the 94th minute no more than a consolation for the visitors.
Fulham boss Marco Silva said of the result: “We lost tonight, but we didn’t lose the season.
“We lost three points, and we were not able to get points tonight.
“We are going to fight really hard, because we have another big game on Sunday to try to get it right again and to bounce back.”
