"Everyone, including the referee, was astounded. He was put in a terrible position. Why can't the referee overrule it when he is only eight yards away?" Ferguson told Sky Sports.
"The problem is that the referees are full-time and the linesmen are not, and whether he ever gets a game again, the assistant referee, is not for me to decide but it was an absolutely shocking decision.
"It costs you. Two years ago when the linesman gave the offside goal against Chelsea it cost us the league, so hopefully we're not saying that at the end of May."
"Listening to Alan Pardew's interview and he said he thought they were the better team in the first half, I don't know what game he was at,"
"They made one chance in the match but in the first half Chicharito had four one-on-ones in the first half and on another day he takes two or three
Det er ved at blive en farce med Ferguson og disse pinlige interviews efter kampen. Om end sådanne interviews for mit vedkommende kun kan frembringe latter, så skader det i den grad sporten, at en mand gang på gang får lov til at ytre sig så negativt om modstandere, dommere m.m. Samtidig ligger han indirekte et pres på de dommere, som i fremtiden skal dømme United. Ferguson er en fremragende træner set på de meritter han har opnået, men hans konstante brok og psykologiske spil når tingene ikke går hans vej trækker i den grad ned i karakterbogen.
