LAURA WOODS has been given a warning by Instagram after insulting one of her followers.
The football presenter took part in Declan Rice’s Arsenal announcement video, which featured several stars.
Woods shared the short film on her Instagram page alongside the caption: “He’s here and he’s perfect.”
But some opposition fans reacted with bitterness, claiming the Gunners overpaid for the former West Ham captain.
However one of Woods’ followers claimed Arsenal tried to get Rice on the cheap, despite paying £105million for his services.
So Woods hit back but included a jibe in her comment that breached Instagram guidelines.

She wrote: “None of this makes any sense. Want him on the cheap? Just paid over £100m for him you sausage.”
The comment was removed by the social media platform as it broke hate speech guidelines.
A perplexed Woods wrote: “Is sausage classed as hate speech these days? 😂”
Woods, 35, is currently preparing to lead ITV’s coverage of the upcoming Women’s World Cup.

She recently opened up on rumours she is set to replace Jake Humphrey as TNT Sports’ main presenter.
Woods told The Sun: “I know, I’ve seen a lot of articles, but I haven’t signed anything.
“There are a couple of offers, but I’ve got a glorious month off now where I can sit down and start planning the next things.
“I don’t want to rush into anything, I’ve never been able to have that privilege in my life before. Never.
“I have always been 100 miles per hour in my career. I used to have this work ethic of taking absolutely everything, because I knew that it would teach me something.
“I didn’t care what it was, I would do it, and it was brilliant. It definitely got me where I am now.
“But now, I have earned the right to take a step back and think: ‘What is right for me next?'”
