Ashley Young is an absolute DISGRACE. He's the biggest cheat in the league. His antics are a joke....
4:11 PM - 15 Apr 12

Didn't think Ryan Taylor had it in him!

haha is that real.

 

[Salazar]

Arnie, trying to make Suarez look better is not a good look.

 

[Kyoufu]

I'm gonna defend him to just piss people off.

Good job Young, give us another one.

haha

Watch Fergie not do anything about this. But it's wrong when other teams do it right? lol

 

[The Friendly Monster]

Considering what is at stake here for both Wigan and Villa, it would have made shockwaves in the sport if they had walked off the pitch in protest. We need something as dramatic as that to invoke change. I guarantee you Young would never dive again in his career after that

What the hell is going on.....in your brain?

 

[Mr. Luchador]

Dont FA have a policy against this stuff?

A completely backwards one. I wouldn't be surprised if Ryan Taylor was the one who was fined for giving an honest opinion.

 

[LegoArmo]

Defend Young?

He beat 2 players with some great skill, and there was contact. He's the size of a 13 year old girl, and he went down easily.

Still a good player though, and a great singing.

 

[bud]

The difference with Suarez is that he gets the contact and then goes down.

Young looks for the contact and dives before it even happens. He prepared his move in advance.

please stop. holy crap, dude.

suarez is one of the worst divers in europe. he's even worse than young.

 

[Bo-Locks]

Wow. I dare anyone try to defend Young...

We're not scousers. We don't do the victimisation complex.

 

[Vivalaraza]

The difference with Suarez is that he gets the contact and then goes down.

Young looks for the contact and dives before it even happens. He prepared his move in advance.

Ryan Taylor has it right on twitter:

I don't really agree with that because I feel like Im sure I've seen Suarez do what Young did there.

Anyway, I really don't think it makes much difference.

Also, and it's such a tired debate, but people don't like Suarez for reasons beyon his diving.

Anyway not gonna comment on this any further.

 

[bjaelke]

Game is still on. Great chance for Welbeck

 

[PowderedToast]

villa aren't playing bad football, but i fear any small chance they had at taking this has gone with that penalty. utd will very likely score again through normal play.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

I guess I am confused...there was contact in the box, that part looks clear.

Ashley Young though makes it seem like a truck hit him, which is the bad part.

 

[Wilbur]

Wouldn't surprise me. The FA don't like people telling the truth.

What a joke Young is. Not fit to wear the United shirt. Surely United fans are embarrassed by his shit.

Tom Daley is fucked now. Young is going to dive for Team GB at the Olympics.

Yeah I'm very embarrassed. But everyone's acting like we don't call it out

 

[Mr. Luchador]

Suppose I can turn this off and watching something else now. This will probably remain a one tempo game where its Man U grinding out chances for Welbeck to waste for 80 mins. Giggs will come and score.

 

[Stubo]

We all know Suarez is a cunt, and we all know that he dives. It's just funny how vocal Man Utd fans are about it, and then Young dives.

I hate it when anyone dives, doesn't matter if he is a Liverpool player. In fact, a Liverpool player diving pisses me off more than when any other player does it.

I don't think any fan likes seeing one of their club's players diving, it's a cheap way to win and it takes the shine off any result, regardless of how comprehensive it may or may not turn out to be. This is why you'll see so many of us being frustrated at Young as long as he continues to play in this manner.

Perhaps united fans have more issue with Suarez than most players due to his...disagreeable behaviour towards Evra, but I'm more than willing to call out any player when they dive, even Bale wasn't immune to this recently, despite my huge admiration for his talents. Notice that no united fans compared Young to Suarez just now, we're not looking for this.

 

[Arnie]

please stop. holy crap, dude.

suarez is one of the worst divers in europe. he's even worse than young.

At diving? No he isn't.

Turn it off, the game's locked up.

 

[Salazar]

Good pressure, this.

 

[Lunchbox]

i hope rooney dives next and then kicks someone without a card

just to put more sand in bin dipper panties

 

[Empty]

great by rooney to get a shot away there.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

And Lunchbox is back, to make sure the thread goes as low as it can

 

[doicare]

So using Tevez to win the league was a spineless move. But cheating, that's ok.

(Judging by Redcafe btw, not sure whoever in here is United fans)

Adam Johnson has done exactly the same thing this season already.

 

[Meus Renaissance]

i hope rooney dives next and then kicks someone without a card

just to put more sand in bin dipper panties

Lol, would be funny I admit

 

[Tunic]

Hoping we can add on to the score. I don't like the goal difference gap we did well to close is back open again.

 

[Bumhead]

To be honest I don't know how the players themselves cope with it.

If he's going to go down anyway, you might as well go through his knee caps and make sure he goes down properly.

 

[Fëanor]

Old bloke. Middle about 4th row up. Bald head. Pointing which way for Rooney to take the pen. Quality.

I see it, hilarious.

 

[Kyoufu]

My hate for Man United is growing further. Have to cheat your way to the title.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

At diving? No he isn't.


Turn it off, the game's locked up.

There was clear contact here.

 

[Arnie]

:lol I've just seen Lunchbox's Celtics avatar.

So that's the Celtics, Patriots, and United?

Stay classy.

 

[José Mourinho]

What was it the guy from QPR said, Ashley Young could be Tom Daley's partner in the Olympics, or something to that effect :lol

 

[Vivalaraza]

My hate for Man United is growing further. Have to cheat your way to the title.

And paying. Don't forget we've paid good money for this.

 

[caramac]

I guess I am confused...there was contact in the box, that part looks clear.

Ashley Young though makes it seem like a truck hit him, which is the bad part.

The thing is he went looking for the contact. He didn't need to do that, he'd already beaten his man.

 

[Wilbur]

My hate for Man United is growing further. Have to cheat your way to the title.

Notice how the only player who cheats is Young. Hate on Villa and Watford, not us!

 

[LegoArmo]

And paying. Don't forget we've paid good money for this.

Yeah, it's no good diving unless you've paid the referee to play along too.

 

[Kyoufu]

And paying. Don't forget we've paid good money for this.

I would post my unicef gif but cba

I was just kidding though I hope United fans don't get angry.

 

[bjaelke]

And paying. Don't forget we've paid good money for this.

Didn't you sign Webb on a free transfer?

 

[Salazar]

Young's special move is like a Prince of Persia time slow.

 

[Empty]

lol evans' crossing

 

[TeegsD]

My hate for Man United is growing further. Have to cheat your way to the title.

 

[ElyrionX]

Jesus christ people, the dive wasn't that bad. At least there was a foot stuck out and contact to begin with.

 

[bud]

is it me or is rooney's newly transplanted hair thinning out?

 

[Brinbe]

Welbeck, c'mon...

 

[Willkiller]

Didn't you sign Webb on a free transfer?

Free? No way, his value must have gone up by at least 30M this season. Great business by Man U.

 

[immy]

Ashley Youngs training schedule

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MbFBy9WtAo

 

[LegoArmo]

is it me or is rooney's newly transplanted hair thinning out?

I think he'll get a top up in the summer.

Should have scored there.

 

[K1LLER7]

how is it still only 1-0.

 

[KidA Seven]

What a shit header :lol

 

[TeegsD]

fucking pass the ball Welbeck. The only way you will score is if Rooney's shots hits off the crossbar

 

[The_Hitcher89]

What the hell is going on.....in your brain?

Do you think its fair for teams to lose points because their opponent is free to cheat without fear of retribution, and regularly exploits that fact?

The lack of retrospective punishment for diving makes me think that our sport deserves the ridicule it recieves from fans of other sports. Its a fucking joke

 

[Mr. Luchador]

is it me or is rooney's newly transplanted hair thinning out?

Just you. I see a huge multicoloured afro. He's also wearing Blue Boots and Gloves. And he's only 4ft tall.

 

[Arnie]

Must be infuriating for United fans too. You're dominating this game, and if you keep this pressure up you'll no doubt win by a few goals, but now the discourse will centre around Young's despicable behaviour.

is it me or is rooney's newly transplanted hair thinning out?

I think it looks pretty good still. Well, compared to what it was last season.
