Richard Keys repeats Mikel Arteta jibe after Arsenal's West Ham thrashing

Richard Keys has repeated criticism of Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta’s touchline behaviour by labelling it as ‘tiresome’.

The BeIN pundit and presenter took a swipe at the Arsenal boss last week following the celebrations in the side’s 3-1 win over Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium. Arteta was filmed running down the touchline in celebration of Arsenal's last two goals, something that didn’t impress Keys.

He responded by not celebrating, something that Keys praised him for. “Class, Dec. Real class. Of course, I’m referring to the ‘celebration’ after Rice smashed Arsenal’s sixth against West Ham,” he wrote in his blog .

“I thought Rice had a thunderous impact on the game. He looked every inch the player that left West Ham and used to play like it every week in their colours.

“Perhaps it was because he was back on familiar territory, but Rice cajoled, hit probing passes and to some degree ran the game, in a way I haven’t seen him do often enough in an Arsenal jersey.

“His goal topped it all off. He did everything I said he should be doing when I wrote about him being Declan Nice recently. And the celebration police were quite happy with what followed his goal. He was muted. Respectful. And classy.”

He then used the praise of Rice to move on to Arteta. The pundit pointed out the difference in the Arsenal boss in
