Arsenal fans rage over Mike Dean refereeing North London Derby

Mike Dean has been named as the referee for this weekend's North London Derby in the Premier League, and Arsenal fans are less than thrilled with the selection.

The Wirral-born Dean, who is set to officiate the game between Arsenal and Tottenham at the Emirates on Sunday, has gained an infamous reputation with Gooners who believe that he may have an agenda against them.

In the last 14 games that Dean has officiated Mauricio Pochettino's team, 11 of those were Spurs victories, the Lilywhites were awarded five penalties during that time.

He has earned a notorious legacy with Arsenal fans who have accused him of committing high-profile mistakes in recent outings.
