FOOTBALL fans roasted Martin Keown after he called Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta “boss” during his pre-match interview at the Etihad.
Arteta, 41, joined the BT Sport broadcast ahead of their Premier League title six-pointer against Manchester City on Wednesday evening.
And he was met by Gunners legends Keown and Patrick Vieira, along with Rio Ferdinand and Joleon Lescott.
Arteta began answering the pundits questions ahead of the crunch clash.
But Keown, who won three Premier League titles with Arsenal, then left viewers squirming when he opened his question by referring to the Arsenal head coach as “boss”.
It was a comment that led to much mockery on social media.

Arsenal come into the pivotal clash with Man City off the back of three successive draws.
And a win for Pep Guardiola’s men at the Etihad would move them to within two points of the Gunners with two games in hand.
But an Arsenal victory would extend their advantage to eight points as they bid to end their 19-year wait for a league title.
