EMMANUEL Frimpong has had a corking Twitter bust-up with celebrity Gooner Piers Morgan after the TV host had a dig at the young Arsenal midfielder. Frimpong was sent off in his Premier League debut in the 2-0 defeat against Liverpool at the Emirates yesterday (for a second tyellow following a tackle on Lucas Leiva) and he was in fighting mood when Morgan gave him some grief about his hair-do and his dismissal.
Frimpong, 19, didn’t hold back when he tweeted to former Daily Mirror editor Morgan:  @piersmorgan U should be ashamed to call urself an arsenal fan all u do is moan about ur team y don’t u do ur job and i will do mine waste.
He also sent: if u don’t like my hair its kool but don’t start chatting on twitter like that ur a big man show it, and added: Come Off twitter and tone that Big Belly.
The tough-tackling Arsenal starlet then tweeted: Sorry bout sending off just wanted to give everything to win it was stupid of me and promise to learn from it.
Frimpong was supported from injured Jack Wilshere who used his Twitter account to say: piersmorgan he is a wise player trust me i have been with him since i was nine! He will be a massive player for arsenal over the next year! i tell you what lads lets just beat the Italians on wednesday yeah! Deal?
See here for Morgan’s reponse from his timeline.
Nice to have a player who shows bite in the tackle and will stand up for himself.
