Troy Deeney has unleashed a scathing rant against Arsenal, likening their performance to a lack of ‘cojones’ during Manchester City’s 2-1 Premier League win.
The former Watford striker, now plying his trade at Birmingham City, was watching from the stands as Manchester City edged out their north London rivals, and he was left seething by what he saw.
Key moments
According to FourFourTwo, Deeney took to social media to express his disgust at Arsenal’s display, saying: ‘What a complete and utter disaster. Lack of cojones from the whole team.’
The comment is a clear reference to Deeney’s infamous ‘cojones’ comment, which he made during a heated exchange with then-Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud in 2014.
Reaction
Deeney’s rant has sparked a heated debate among football fans, with many taking to social media to share their thoughts on the matter.
One fan tweeted: ‘Troy Deeney is the only one who speaks the truth about Arsenal.’
Another fan replied: ‘Deeney is just salty because his team is rubbish.’
