Piers Morgan lashes out at Arsene Wenger after Thierry Henry leaves coaching role

Thierry Henry has left his role as a youth team coach with Arsenal.

According to reports, Arsene Wenger issued an ultimatum to his former player: either give up his role as pundit for Sky Sports, or give up his coaching role at Arsenal. He chose to remain in the gig that pays a reported £4m a year. According to The Daily Mail:

"Wenger has ruled that Henry can only have a coaching role with Arsenal’s academy if he devotes himself full-time and relinquishes his role as a pundit on Sky Sports. "Wenger, 66, feels his fellow Frenchman cannot work within the club during the week and then criticise their players at the weekend."

The news that Henry will remain as a pundit angered Piers Morgan more than most. The broadcaster and Gunners fan took aim, as usual, at the Arsenal manager. Morgan claims that Henry has being "driven out" of the club, and accused Wenger of hypocrisy. https://twitter.com/piersmorgan/status/752757651747012608?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/piersmorgan/status/752772173094412288?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw Gary Lineker got involved... https://twitter.com/GaryLineker/status/752778911537303556 So did Robbie Fowler... https://twitter.com/Robbie9Fowler/status/752776659233869824 https://twitter.com/piersmorgan/status/752776997303123968 But, despite some saying Henry's decision wasn't forced by Wenger, Morgan wouldn't back down. https://twitter.com/GeoffArsenal/status/752780426402525184 https://twitter.com/piersmorgan/status/752780778996637697?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw
