If we win the Europa League final with a dive will you really care?
Are you upset the referee didn't disallow Rashford's goal against Chelsea cos the ball hit Herrera's arm in the build up?
Rashford did what he needed to do to help us win. He's showing growing game intelligence, which will hold him and us in good stead going forward.
Pretty blatant dive alright.
Yeah I'll leave the moral brigade to fume over this while I enjoy it.
Not seen this yet as I'm at work but if it's what I think it is then I've seen plenty of them where players have left their foot in and it's claimed to be "clever" by commentators/pundits.
So?
Rob a bank and you have money.
Cheating is cheating no matter and I certainly don't want us to win that way. I hate cheaters like Suarez, so I don't want that crap at United. People were on Young's back for cheating. Why should Rashford get away with it? He deserves a retrospective an if you ask me as do all Hollywood stars trying to play football. That being said, I like his winning mentality and him as a player in general.
Yet when we don't get a clear penalty next time because that will be in the back of the refs mind the whole forum will call him a biased cnut who clearly has it in for United.
Disgraceful dive, some of you should be ashamed for applauding it. We should be doing all we can to move away from cheating, not accepting it for what it is and encouraging our players to join in. Unfortunately the only way to stamp it out will be video refereeing or retrospective punishment.
If that happened against us I'd be absolutely seething. They've completely outfoxed us and outplayed us, are scrapping for the lives needing every point and they've been done by another act of cheating. Not acceptable.
Great that we're a goal up, mind.

How's this different from what Victor Moses did at Wembley? All the pundits said Moses was smart to win a penalty for his team? Why is Rashford judged differently?
If the cheating is in favour of United it is fine. If a decision goes against us (like the Fellaini headbutt, which actually was a red card) then the whole universe and refs are cheating us. = CAF logic
I would care - yes! I cared that Liverpool won over Milano because of a dive and I would mind if we did the same.
Herrera didn't cheat - it was a handball alright, but not one that he went looking for. The ball hit his arm and he continued playing.
Don't care that he dived, all players do it and we have a valuable goal now.
What concerns me is that this could lead to a full on Ashley young style media crusade against Rash which could end up with him not getting other proper decisions that should be going his way. I'm already seeing loads of journalists etc posting about it on twitter, it's like they can't wait to tear into him.
We know the media loves a crusade against a united player "diving".

Yes it is - but it's pretty awful to think that cheating is fine as long as we are on the winning end of it. Especially considering that most Caftards were pissed off with Young for diving. Double standards.
what a fecking awful comparison.
Aye. Personally I'm not that bothered by the dive but we should at least accept that he cheated without the the hypocritical double standards or bullshit justifications. We should also remember this the next time we get cheated, or a player we don't like does the cheating.
But that's the whole point of being a United fan, though, being biased towards United. Plus there's no logic involved in why we support United in the first place.
Cannot speak for everyone, but me personally I have never once moaned about a dive from us or an opposition player against us
I have always seen it part of the game
And the same caftards were condoning Ronaldo before Young. Football fans are hypocrites. Shocker.
Diving is no more cheating than defenders constantly getting away with tugging the shirts of attackers when the referee can't see it. As with everything, it's about doing it cleverly.
Keeper was taking him out regardless. It wasa pen.
It was a dive and I'd prefer if Rashford didn't cheat. Then again, Fabiański was wrong there too and the situation was really tough for the ref and assistant. We got lucky, that's it.
Rashford has just brought video refereeing, an inevitability at this stage, one step closer.
Yes because he plays for Man Utd and has mainly got no criticism so far, this one piece of criticism will no doubt be blown huge and result in VR for EPL coming closer (not even being sarcastic here)
I rate Rashford higher in wide areas than Martial.
Completely agree. It was definitely a pen.
Why is he still allowed to take set pieces? He's fecking shit at it.
Do people really think Rashford is the next Ronaldo just because he's scored a few goals and showed some skills in the last few games?
Poor corners and free kicks.
Shocking second half.
The feck is this set piece lark all about.
Part of why he was so impressive last year was his maturity in his play. I'm all for confidence but he seems to think he's Messi at times, slightly infuriating.
His blistering pace masks a lot he is not quite ready to lead the line for us his hold up play is non existent and his finishing is erratic. Going to be a cracker for us though.
He's another cheat.
Too much dribbling and he's not very good up front against teams sitting deep. His hold up play is non existent.
His overconfidence annoys me too much.
He thinks he s done when to me is awful technically.
Just push the ball and play alone.
Always does the same runs and doesnt create anythibg.
His set pieces are AWFULL

You must be having a laugh if you seriously think that was a penalty. Fabianski wouldn't have touched him if Rashford didn't try to sell it, period.
I'm going to get criticised for this but I honestly think he's the most overrated English player since Michael Owen. He's a kick and run merchant who can finish well when he's on form.
But world class potential? I seriously doubt it.
