Troy Deeney accuses Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey of bottling it against Watford

Troy Deeney has accused Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey of bottling in Arsenal's defeat by the Hornets last week.

Watford pulled off a shock result when they went to The Emirates and beat Arsenal 2-1 and Deeney has had some strong words to say about the Arsenal and Wales midfielder.

Ramsey deflected Younes Kaboul's early free kick into his own net after he turned his back on the ball – something Deeney was not impressed by.
