Angry Moyes slams Van Aanholt over shisha pipe photos

David Moyes believes Patrick van Aanholt has set a bad example after being snapped smoking a shisha pipe.

Sunderland manager David Moyes has hit out at defender Patrick van Aanholt after photos emerged which appeared to show him smoking a shisha pipe.

The snaps of the 26-year-old are reportedly six weeks old and took place before the start of the Premier League season.

However, Moyes was still unhappy with the conduct of Van Aanholt, who was withdrawn from the team for Sunderland's match with Tottenham last week at the last minute due to a heart scare, but since returned to action.
