Alexandre Lacazette mocked Burnley boss Sean Dyche on Instagram after he accused the Gunners of cheating.
Arsenal managed to secure a 2-1 win over the Clarets in the early kick off on Saturday, with Lacazette opening the scoring.
But Dyche was adamant the Arsenal players were ‘diving all over the place’.
In a post uploaded by Instagram user ‘threesixtytv_’, Dyche rants about how it is unacceptable that you can get a yellow card for cheating.
He said: “It’s grown to a level where it’s not a silly thing. It’s every week now. You know on Match of the Day they used to highlight it… going back seven or eight years they used to highlight it – now they don’t even show it!
“It doesn’t even get shown now. That’s peculiar about life. Probably about life actually. Yeah, probably is about life.
“You know when you’ve got kids and they do a maths test and the teacher says your kid cheated. ‘Well done, that’s alright. Well done!’ – do you do that?! I don’t think so.
“You go: ‘What are you doing?!’ and you agree with the teacher or you should be agreeing with the teacher.
“It’s unacceptable, this is professional sport. Acceptable to just get a yellow card to cheat. Literally.”
After seeing the video himself, Lacazette liked the post and then replied by posting a series of laughing face emojis underneath.
Despite scoring, the 28-year-old is still adamant Arsenal fans have not yet seen the best of him.
Speaking after the game to Canal Plus, the France international said: “The Premier League has seen a very good Lacazette, but not yet the best Lacazette.
“I need to score more goals I know, I need to be more consistent and consistent throughout matches. I can do better.”
