Manchester United midfielder Ashley Young unapologetic about his reputation as a 'diver' But I think it's one to ask the referees - they are the ones who are giving free-kicks and penalties. I remember getting booked against Palace and then won a penalty (later in the game). Against Real Sociedad, it was another penalty that was given. Referees have tough decisions to make, they have a tough, tough time out there making decisions, but they have made the right decisions I think. Despite finding himself in the eye of the storm following the alleged dives against Palace and Sociedad, Young claims he is unfazed by the negative publicity. "I don't take notice of the headlines or the debates," Young said. That's obviously for the media to debate and people to have their say on it. Everyone is entitled to have their say on it, but for me, the referees have made decisions and that's it. Of course I understand what you're saying (about gaining a reputation) and everyone is going to have their say on it. But I've spoken to the previous manager and current manager, the referees are giving decisions and that is where I think it lies. Whether by fault or design, Young's spell out of Moyes's team in recent weeks coincided with the controversy generated by the penalty won by the player during the Champions League encounter with Sociedad last month. The former Aston Villa forward has struggled to convince Moyes of his credentials as a first-team regular and has become a target for supporter unrest, with Old Trafford ringing out to ironic applause when he was replaced by Robin van Persie during the second-half of the 1-0 victory against Shakhtar. Young insists he is unaware of losing the backing the United supporters, but he has vowed to prove his worth, both to Moyes and those watching from the Old Trafford stands. "I didn't hear the applause (when being taken off)," Young said. But to be honest, I think you always have a bit of criticism now and then and it's the way you take it. I'm a positive person. I always want to play well and go and show the fans how I can play and the fans have been brilliant since the day I came here. We want to do well for them. Obviously it's been disappointing that I've not been involved as much as I would have liked. Every player in the squad wants to play every game and I'm no different to that. I was involved against Shakhtar and in a few other games this season, but I've had a period where I've not been involved. For me, I just want to get back out there playing. I'm a player who always wants to play each game and if I can give the manager a headache in training then it's his decision whether I play or not. If Young starts against his former club at Villa Park on Sunday, it will be the first time since mid-September that he has been selected for successive games by Moyes. Since that time, Young has fallen out of the England squad having started all four games at Euro 2012, but he admits he remains hopeful of convincing Roy Hodgson to take him to Brazil next summer. "You always want to play in the biggest tournaments, whether that's at club level or international level," Young said. So of course, I want to be on that plane. But I don't think there's a player who has been involved in the squad that doesn't want to be on the plane. Right now I'm not thinking about the World Cup, I'm thinking about playing for United. I've started against Shakhtar and hopefully when the manager picks the team again I can be involved again.
