Manchester United took the draconian step of banning media outlets from Erik ten Hag’s press conference.
The struggling club took drastic action against Sky Sports, the Mirror, ESPN and the Manchester Evening News over reports that United players are beginning to turn on manager Ten Hag.
Piers Morgan led the outcry, saying: ‘WTF? I hope every other journalist now boycotts this press conference in solidarity with their colleagues. And yes, I’d say exactly the same if Arsenal behaved like this.
‘Pathetic. You can pull this stunt when you’re the greatest manager of all time like Sir Alex (Ferguson), but to do it when you’re as bad as Ten Hag, and the journalists are accurately reporting how bad you are, is laughable.
