Troy Deeney saw red for his ‘elbow’ on Lucas Torreira
According to the Daily Mirror, Deeney called the decision to send him off a ‘f****** embarrassment’ before appearing to talk to the diminutive midfielder.
As he headed for the tunnel, he first had words with the fourth official before venting to Emery on the touchline.
Pointing back towards the field, the 31-year-old shouted: “He’s a f****** p****.
“I’ve ran past him.”

Deeney exchanged words with Torreira
Arsenal claimed all three points by grinding out a 1-0 win to move back into the top four and above Chelsea with a game in hand.
And the course of the game was decided within the space of a minute as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang pounced on a Ben Foster mistake to score.
Then, no more than 60 seconds after the goal, the Hornets were down to 10 men after Deeney’s challenge.
Referee Craig Pawson did not see the striker catch Torreira, but it was referred to it by his linesman on the near side.
