Ashley Young ignores critics after netting winner for Manchester United at Newcastle

Match-winner Ashley Young insists Manchester United are perfectly happy to just ignore those outsiders who continue to criticise 'the biggest club in the world'.


The wing-back converted Wayne Rooney's late knockdown to snatch a 1-0 victory at Newcastle, stabilising the Red Devils in fourth place following wins elsewhere for rivals Arsenal and Liverpool.

The result also means Louis van Gaal's men have only lost two of their last 22 matches, but critics continue to pick holes in United's tactical approach and perceived underachievement.
But Young says the club are fully focused on competing for honours while ignoring the noise.

He told BT Sport: 'People are always going to question the biggest club in the world but we just concentrate on ourselves and don't listen to anybody else.

'We listen to the manager and the staff and we just wanted to come here and get the three points.

'We've got a great team spirit and a great bond here and we will fight for our place.
