Television presenter, and Manchester United fan, Eamonn Holmes slammed Reading forward Andy Carroll- stating that he should be arrested.
The Northern Irishman, famous for his time presenting This Morning and GMTV, is now an anchor for GB News.
Discussing United's 2-2 draw with Leeds United, the 63-year-old cited a missing Christian Eriksen as an issue.
In the Royals' 3-1 defeat to the Red Devils last month, Carroll was sent off for two bookable offences.

Eamonn Holmes says Reading striker Andy Carroll should have been arrested for his ‘horrendous’ tackle on Christian Eriksen in Man United’s FA Cup clash against the Championship club.@EamonnHolmes | #MUFC pic.twitter.com/g4EAdRuUnm
However, one challenge with evaded a card was a nasty one on the Denmark star, who is now missing until April.
Speaking on the issue, Holmes said: "I think Andy Carroll should have been arrested for what he did to Christian Eriksen. I think it was an absolutely horrendous foul, awful tackle and it’s going to impact on our season big time."
The 33-year-old has served his suspension and will be available for selection on Saturday.
