The Daily Mail's coverage has angered Twitter

But unfortunately, the Daily Mail’s coverage of Lennon’s situation had angered many people on social media.

They published a tweet with the headline: “£55,000-a-week England footballer Aaron Lennon is detained under Mental Health Act after stand-off with police”.

Understandably, people are fuming that Lennon’s wage is mentioned. Why is that relevant? And ‘stand-off with police’ - hardly sensitive, is it.

The Mail's report also goes into detail about Lennon’s previous dealings with the police, and this has also angered Twitter users.

Sports stars lend their support to Lennon

However, it’s fantastic to see sporting stars - and fans - uniting to lend their support to Lennon.

Get well soon, Aaron.
