Kevin Kilbane has said Cesc Fabregas is a "total arse" on the pitch, recounting a specific incident from a 2011 match to bolster his claim.

Kilbane, nearing the end of his career, was on loan at Huddersfield – currently a Premier League side but at the time residing in League One.

Speaking on the "Off The Ball" show on Thursday, Kilbane recounted a 2011 FA Cup fourth-round encounter between his side and Arsenal, where Fabregas was a star midfielder at the time.

"Cesc Fabregas was a total arse," Kilbane said when asked about any players he found to be particularly objectionable during his playing career.
