Young was embarassing against CSKA - Scholes


Paul Scholes has branded Ashley Young “embarrassing”
after the winger’s dive in Manchester United’s 1-0 win over
CSKA Moscow in the Champions League.

With the match goalless in the second half and United
heading for their fourth consecutive 0-0 draw, Young looked
to win a penalty after colliding with Georgy Schennikov
inside the CSKA area.

Young was not booked for simulation but Scholes believes
diving is something the midfielder is struggling to eradicate
from his game.

“Ashley needs to stop doing this,” Scholes told BT Sport .

“He knows himself he needs to stop doing this but it’s just a
habit, he can’t get rid of it.

“It’s so obvious and just needs to get it out of his game.

“It is embarrassing and he needs to get rid of it. Ashley
knows that. He’s a really good player and he doesn’t need to
resort to these tactics but I think it’s something ingrained in
him.”

Wayne Rooney's second-half header sealed a 1-0 win over
CSKA to send Louis van Gaal's side to the top of Group B.
