The former Watford striker has opened up on his battles over the years with two players previously at Liverpool
Ex-Watford striker Troy Deeney has admitted Martin Skrtel and Mamadou Sakho had no answer to his physicality during their Premier League head-to-heads.
This was a match Watford won 3-0 at Vicarage Road courtesy of goals from Nathan Ake and Odion Ighalo , on what was a poor day for Jurgen Klopp's backline. It is safe to say Deeney has fond memories of this afternoon and has revealed his plan was to always aggravate whoever he was looking to get the better of.
In conversation with Jermaine Defoe on the 'Football Firsts' podcast, Deeney first said of Sakho: "He's a nice guy, but my game is physical so I'm not letting you do anything - not with that stupid haircut. I bodied him a few times. We had loads of back-and-forths. This article contains affiliate links, we will receive a commission on any sales we generate from it.
