That's the problem with speaking out. Sometimes it can come back to bite you in the... er... backside.

And if Troy Deeney is looking at his Twitter mentions right now then he might well feel the same.

The Watford skipper was in the news last weekend for heading up to the BT Sport studio to criticise Arsenal after Watford had beaten them 2-1 at Vicarage Road in the Premier League.

Deeney claimed that Arsenal players "lacked cojones" after succumbing to the Hornets, and his comments didn't go down very well with Gunners fans.

So, when Watford turned a 2-1 lead into a 4-2 defeat to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday - a match that Deeney sarted - you can imagine what was on the minds of Gunners fans.

Yep.

You win this round, Gooners.
