Laura Woods apologises to former Arsenal star and looks awkward as she asks ‘how could I?’

LAURA WOODS issued an awkward apology to an ex-Arsenal ace as she forgot he played in the Premier League.

Laura covered the Gunners’ drab 0-0 draw with Manchester City for TNT Sports at the Etihad last week.

Paul Dickov played for both Arsenal and Manchester City in the Premier LeagueRex

The TV presenter and Citizens hero Joleon Lescott decided to entertain a very disappointed audience with a game that saw them naming players who competed for both sides during the Prem era.

The rules were simple, each of them would take a turn and the first one to run out of names would lose.

Lescott let Woods kick things off and she went with England legend David Seaman, who spent almost the entirety of his career in north London and retired in Manchester.

The former defender then started to “trigger” the TNT Sports presenter as he started to remind her of all the Arsenal greats who switched her beloved club for City.

The 41-year-old started out with Kolo Toure but Woods took it on the chin and responded with Emmanuel Adebayor, even though that also brought back some bad memories.

Lescott hit back with Samir Nasri before the 36-year-old replied with Premier League Hall of Famer Patrick Vieira, who moved to the Etihad before City‘s dominance kicked off.

The ex-Aston Villa star continued with Gael Clichy and the host answered with Gabriel Jesus.

A very confident Lescott then dropped Oleksandr Zinchenko, which is when his TNT Sports colleague started to run out of options.

That was when she named Paul Dickov, but had to check with the crew as she wasn’t sure the former striker competed during the Premier League era.

It was then confirmed that Dickov registered 36 goals and six assists in 155 Prem appearances.

The popular TV personality was then left red faced and apologised to the Scotland legend.

Laura said: “Is that Premier League era? Sorry Paul, I wasn’t 100 per cent. How could I?”

Lescott then sealed the win with Nicolas Anelka as that was when his colleague had to bow out.

But not before the ex-Wolves, Everton and West Brom star poured salt into her wounds by also naming Sylvinho.
