He's right to be angry, but "he could have been killed, won't someone please think of the children" routine is a bit far. Just as it's a bit of a stretch to sarcastically suggesting banning headers.
That's not to say I don't think it wasn't deliberate though, because it probably was. At the very least if I'd accidentally smashed someone in the head from a yard I'd be immediately apologetic, not confrontational. And it's not exactly good timing what with his quotes about Suarez; it doesn't exactly cast him as a "he's not like that" kind of guy, in fact he seems like a complete dick.
But as he picked his target well, I say congratulations. You're the envy of many millions.
