Watford captain Troy Deeney has been charged by the FA for post-match comments he made about the referee in the Hornets' 3-3 draw with Bournemouth recently.

Deeney was interviewed by BBC Sport and accused Bournemouth midfielder Dan Gosling of "trying to do" Tom Cleverley in a tackle.
Gosling was booked at the time, but Deeney thought he should have been sent off and said referee David Coote "bottled it".
The Watford captain has up until the 15th of January to respond to the charge.
Deeney also believed his team-mate Abdoulaye Doucoure too got lucky with just a booking and not a red card for a challenge on Ryan Fraser.
"Doucoure probably did get lucky (not to be sent off), but you cannot tell me that their boy (Gosling) did not try to do Tom Cleverley," Deeney said.
"They know it. We know. But the referee bottled it on a few occasions."
