Manchester United boss Louis Van Gaal was on the spotlight once against after his side’s one-all draw with title contenders Leicester City. After the match, the Dutch tactician was bombarded with questions by journalists regarding Marouane Fellaini’s conduct in the game.
The Belgium international was seen elbowing Leicester City’s Robert Huth for grabbing his hair, an incidence that could see the former Everton man getting a ban.

But on the other hand, Louis Van Gaal expressed his support for the midfielder by demonstrating how it would feel in such a situation. In the post-match interview, the former Bayern Munich boss pulled the hair of journalist as a demonstration, and asked him if he liked it:
Another Louis classic. Pulling hair. #mufchttps://t.co/3SsfZBWb0f

Here are some of the reactions to the incident:
LVG - If someone grabbed my hair my reaction would be to confront them. Not elbow them. Don't defend that behavior. Twat. #LVG #Fellaini

LVG says the Huth/Fellaini elbow incident should be a #mufc penalty for Huth pulling the player's hair in the box
