Alexandre Lacazette and Harry Kane were both heavily involved this weekend in the North London derby.

£46.5 million 2017 signing Lacazette led the line for the Gunners, with Kane equalising in the second from the penalty spot.

This was Kane’s 16th league goal of the season, ahead of Lacazette on 12.

Controversially, after the game, Lacazette ‘liked’ a tweet calling Tottenham striker Kane a ‘fraud’.

The original message pointed out that Kane’s scoring record is boosted by penalties.

Four of Kane’s 16 goals have come from penalties this season, none for Lacazette.

This puts the duo level on goals from open play.

Fair enough, but is there any need on Lacazette’s part to childishly ‘like’ a message slagging off his rival?

Arsenal fans will be amused by it, but he hasn’t really made himself look good in the process.
