Troy Deeney is confused by the revisionism surrounding one Arsenal player after their 4-0 win over Atletico Madrid.
Arsenal's victory, with goals from Gabriel Magalhaes, Gabriel Martinelli, and a brace from Viktor Gyokeres, moved them up to fourth in the Champions League League Phase table.
Deeney believes the praise for one player has gone too far, citing Viktor Gyokeres as an example. Gyokeres, who was signed for £63 million, had struggled in certain games and was in need of a goal before the Atletico clash.
He had netted just three times in eleven appearances, and the pressure was growing on him to deliver.
Fortunately, Gyokeres scored, alleviating some pressure on him and Arteta.
