Manchester United star Marcus Rashford has been labelled 'out of control' following his latest disciplinary breach.
Former Chelsea and England striker Chris Sutton has hit out at the 26-year-old for what he describes as 'utterly disgraceful' actions.
United confirmed in a statement on Monday that Rashford has been 'dealt' with after he was clubbing in Belfast last week.
The Three Lions star spent two nights clubbing in Northern Ireland and reported ill on Friday morning, ruling him out of Sunday's FA Cup tie at Newport County.

Manager Erik ten Hag confirmed it was an 'internal' matter that he was going to sort behind closed doors.
United have the power to fine Rashford up to two weeks' wages, which would equate to around £650,000.
It is not the first time Rashford has been in trouble during Ten Hag's reign at Old Trafford.
Last season he was dropped to the bench for a match at Wolves after turning up late to training.
He was also criticised by his manager for celebrating his birthday just hours after losing the derby against Manchester City earlier this season.
Sutton says Rashford has shown 'no respect' for Ten Hag or his team-mates with his behaviour.
He said on the It's All Kicking Off podcast: "Marcus Rashford is like a good few Manchester United players at this moment in time.
"He thinks he's untouchable. This hasn't been the first time where he's had a misdemeanour. It's been continuous.
"He has no respect for the manager and no respect for his team-mates. That's the bottom line.
Sutton feels sorry for Ten Hag but still believes Rashford will outlast him at Old Trafford.
He added: "He's probably thinking he is going to outlast Ten Hag anyway but he's out of control as far as I can see.
"It's unbelievable. He is 26 now, Marcus Rashford. He has such a lack of respect for the manager. He's making his feelings quite clear, isn't he?
"I feel sorry for Ten Hag, but essentially we know which way this is going to go.
"Ten Hag will eventually end up leaving and Rashford will stay on and all the Manchester United fans further down the line will love Marcus again because he's 'Manchester United through and through'. But his actions have been utterly disgraceful."
