Keano and Scholes being fairly hard on Young.

Quote:
Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane has slammed Ashley Young for what he considered a dive to try and win a penalty against CSKA Moscow.

But Keane did not hold back on his criticism of Young, who has developed a reputation for diving since joining United from Aston Villa in 2011. He has twice being booked for simulation, against Crystal Palace in September 2013 and Sunderland in August 2014.


"I think the guy's a disgrace. He's done it [dived] far too many times," Keane said during his role as a pundit on ITV's Champions League coverage. "Look at that [dive] -- absolute disgrace and I just hope players are getting hold of him, whether it be the manager or some of the senior players.


"That shouldn't be accepted at Man United. Absolutely disgraceful.


"You can maybe do it once or twice and make the mistake, but he's done it nine or 10 times and at his previous clubs."


Paul Scholes had already been critical of his former teammate during BT Sport's coverage of the game on Tuesday night.


"Ashley needs to stop doing this," Scholes said. "He knows that himself, but it's just a habit and he can't get rid of it.


"It's so obvious and he just needs to get this out of his game. It is embarrassing and Ashley knows it.
