Troy Deeney has urged Arsenal to spurn the ‘humiliation’ of giving Liverpool a guard of honour in an X-rated rant.

Chelsea became the first side to give them a guard of honour ahead of their clash at Stamford Bridge on Sunday - a game that the Blues ended up winning 3-1.

And Deeney has suggested that Arsenal should NOT do the same.



Speaking to The Sun before the clash in West London, the former Premier League striker said: “Chelsea will give Liverpool a ‘guard of honour’ before tomorrow’s Premier League match at Stamford Bridge.

It’s not so much a mark of respect as a humiliation for the team lining up to give the champions a little clap.

"It's as if Chelsea and Arsenal and everyone who plays the champs for the rest of the season, is saying, ‘Well done, we’re perfectly happy you beat us’.

"When my Watford team lost an FA Cup final to Manchester City, we had to stand and clap while they got their medals.

Save your fans some embarrassment.”
