Mia Khalifa Sends Curious Tweet Attacking Mateo Guendouzi

Lebanese-American TV personality Mia Khalifa has launched an astonishing, if slightly humorous attack on Arsenal midfielder Mateo Guendouzi after the Gunners were beaten 1-0 at West Ham on Saturday.
Highly-rated defensive midfielder Declan Rice scored the only goal of the game just three minutes into the second half. The result means the Gunners failed to go level on points with Chelsea in the race for a Champions League spot.
The likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Alexandro Lacazette and Aaron Ramsey, who is reportedly set to sign for Italian champions Juventus on a free transfer in the summer, all struggled to perform at the London Stadium.
That allowed the Hammers to grab a huge win to strengthen their own push for a top half finish. Manuel Pellegrini’s men have impressed for much of this season after spending big this summer.
But Khalifa took aim at Guendouzi, the young French midfielder who is being eased into the squad by manager Unai Emery. But the presenter’s tweet left a lot to the imagination. She called him a very rude band and accused him of being on the ground all the time, presumably accusing him of cheating and diving.
Up next for the Gunners is another tough London Derby against Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium. It is a crucial game if they hope to finish in the top four this season, so this defeat could hardly have come at a worse time. With the transfer window open, Emery has also suggested any signings will be made on loan as the club looks to further balance the books.
West Ham will be hoping to keep hold of star man Marko Arnautovic, who reportedly asked to leave this week amid interest from China. He appeared to wave goodbye to the fans during the game. The club has insisted he is not for sale and will hope to keep him, even if further bids materialise for the Austrian.
