Troy Deeney insists he doesn't hate Arsenal and claims the Premier League side are heading in the right direction under Mikel Arteta.
Deeney, 34, claimed the Gunners lacked "cojones" after Watford 's 2-1 victory against Arsene Wenger's side in October 2017. The Englishman, who was captain of Watford at the time, was suggesting Arsenal weren't up for the fight after surrendering a 1-0 lead.
"I've heard Wenger's already blaming [a penalty decision] as the reason why they lost," Deeney told BT Sport at full-time. "I'm not going to be the one to tell Mr Wenger about himself, but there's a reason why they lost and it wasn't because of one penalty.
