Kasper Schmeichel Branded The Most "Obnoxious" Player In The League After Shouting At Linesman

Kasper Schmeichel has been branded the "biggest and most obnoxious" player in the Premier League after shouting at the linesman.

Leicester City beat West Ham United 4-1 at the King Power Stadium with the visitors scoring a penalty through Mark Noble.

And during the spot kick, Schmeichel could be heard abusing the linesman as he approached the goal line for Noble's penalty.

As the Danish keeper walked back to his line after being cautioned, he pointed at the match official then said: "Don't start with me!"

A third added: "Kasper Schmeichel attitude toward officials is a disgrace. Gets booked for dissent then starts gobbing off at the lino!"
