Manchester United winger Ashley Young has spoken for the first time since his latest penalty controversy, sort of.
Ashley Young has been the target of more criticism after his theatrical penalty fall against Real Sociedad, with Roy Keane stating the winger ‘conned the referee.’
There have been numerous virals laughing at the winger’s annoying habit, which doesn’t take away the seriousness of the playacting.
Young himself made no comment after the game, but upon touching down from the plane in Manchester he posted an Instagram photo, and did not address the furore.
The responses were not kind to say the least, and Young should be in no illusions as how how his persistent diving is being received.
Here’s a selection:
Mohamedaziz786: Don’t deserve to wear a united shirt
Juanbakes: I like the way you play, but hate the way you dive!
damarmendl: why u no stop diving? huh?
adudemulti: If u stop diving… I will actually like u
farlsmufc: you could stop diving, that would be great, for you, for your career, and for United. I still support you btw..
