Watford captain Troy Deeney has been fined £20,000 by the FA after comments made after their clash with Bournemouth.

Deeney accused referee David Coote of 'bottling' several decisions in his side's 3-3 draw with the Cherries on January 2.

He admitted an FA charge, accepting that his interview 'questioned the integrity of the match official and/or were personally offensive in relation to the match official', the governing body announced.

He said on a Match of the Day interview: "I think the referee, to be fair, bottled it on a few occasions. There's a handball right at the end. I'm not one to hammer refs, but he bottled it on a few occasions today."
