Watford 0-1 Arsenal: Troy Deeney DESERVED red card and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang winner is Goal of the Season, claims Dean Saunders
Dean Saunders believes Troy Deeney deserved to be sent off during Watfords narrow, and some would say unjust, defeat to Arsenal on Monday night.The talkSPORT pundit also believes Pierre-Emerick Aubameyangs winner should be Goal of the Season, and is better than Liverpool star Mohamed Salahs wonderstrike against Chelsea.Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang celebrates his goal against Watford4

Arsenal scraped a 1-0 win over the ten-man Hornets thanks to Aubameyangs fortuitous goal – the ball ending up in the net after he blocked a clearance from Watford goalkeeper Ben Foster.Watford endured a nightmare start, going a goal and a man down with just 11 minutes on the clock as their captain, Deeney, was shown a straight red card for an apparent elbow on Lucas Torreira.The hosts recovered and were the better team for the remaining of the clash but the Gunners managed to hold on by the skin of their teeth, with goalkeeper Bernd Leno making a series of crucial saves.Deeney was sent off after just 11 minutes4

Deeneys sending off sparked a huge debate on social media. Referee Craig Pawson didnt actually see the incident, he was notified of the contact between the Watford skipper and Torreira by his linesman.Replays showed very little indication of intent, but Pawson had obviously heard enough to make up his mind.The striker clearly disagreed with the decision, exchanging angry words with Unai Emery as he left the pitch, and many, including Watford boss Javi Gracia, were left scratching their heads at the call. But Saunders insists it was the right decision and believes officials may have been on the lookout for trouble from the Watford captain, after his comments about Arsenals apparent lack of cojones 18 months ago.I think it was a red card, Saunders said on Tuesdays Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast.I was trying to look at reasons not to give him a red card but he meant to leave a bit on him, leave an elbow on him.I think the referee would have seen what he said [about Arsenal] and thought if Troy Deeney starts putting himself about, were going to stamp it out early.The former Wales striker also hailed Aubameyang for his match-winning goal, and dubbed it his Goal of the Season.Liverpool ace Mo Salah sent jaws dropping on Sunday for his brilliant long-range thunderbolt against Chelsea, which some hailed as one of best they had seen so far this term.Salah wowed Anfield with his brilliant long-range goal against Chelsea on Sunday4

But Saunders says the Arsenal stars goal against Watford was better, for his sheer effort and determination.Aubameyangs goal – and this is going to sound stupid – but thats Goal of the Season, for me, he added.You look at Salahs goal and you think, how can that be better? But Aubameyang has chased a lost cause, hes closed down Ben Foster and turned it into a goal.Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang challenges Ben Foster for the goal4

Personally, being a striker and coaching strikers, I enjoyed that goal more than Salahs. He didnt have to do it, its effort and determination.Hes made a goal out of absolutely nothing and won Arsenal the game.
