"Fair play to the boy, I think he's apologised after the game… he probably knows he's done a bit wrong because obviously the Arsenal fans were clearly frustrated with his behaviour," he told Sky Sports News.
"Players make mistakes. When he scored he got a bit carried away. We shouldn't go overboard on it. I think we should go easy on the boy.
"From my point of view, if he was one of my players, I'd hope everyone would leave it at that. I personally don't think he should be banned – maybe just a warning."
