TV personality Piers Morgan and Arsenal legend Lee Dixon have come to blows on Twitter due to disagreeing opinions on the departure of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
The Gabonese forward left the Emirates Stadium in the January transfer window after being stripped of club captaincy by manager Mikel Arteta and frozen out of the first team. However, although Aubameyang had been underperforming for a while for the Gunners, it has left the North London outfit short of options in the final third – much to the frustration of Morgan.
Since moving to Barcelona, the striker has found some of the best form of his career with eight goals and one assist in nine La Liga appearances. Morgan has been vocal in his anger that Arsenal let the forward leave, but on Sunday night Dixon decided to try and put an end to the journalist's social media rants – leading him to be labelled ‘patronising’ by Morgan.
