Troy Deeney left Simon Jordan stunned as he named the biggest football rivalry in England and robustly rebuffed suggestions that Arsenal v Tottenham is the standout derby of the calendar.

The 35-year-old previously spent the best years of his career at Watford, earning promotions from the Championship with the Hornets and scoring 47 Premier League goals in the process.

Other spells at Birmingham, Walsall and Forest Green Rovers formed the remainder of his playing career before Deeney retired last-year and subsequently took up a head coach role at Rovers.
