Troy Deeney reveals 'losing his head' with now-Man United star Odion Ighalo at Watford

Watford captain Troy Deeney has revealed that he once got so angry at Odion Ighalo while he was at Watford that he drove home instead of taking the flight back with his team.

Speaking to The United Stand, Deeney recalled how in one away match against Manchester United in 2016, Ighalo threw away multiple chances, including one where he could've squared the ball to Deeney for an easy tap-in.

'I was in such a mood that I drove home, I didn't get back on the plane,' he said, suggesting there would be 'problems' if he was near Ighalo.
