' The Wayne Rooney foul '

Should Wayne Rooney have been sent off?

Cardiff City defender Ben Turner had no complaints about seeing Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney escape a red card for lashing out at Jordon Mutch during the first half of Sunday's 2-2 draw.

The controversial incident occurred just eight minutes into the match when Rooney kicked Mutch before lashing out at the Cardiff midfielder with his left hand as his run was blocked off.

Rooney was only shown a yellow card but might consider himself fortunate not to have been dismissed.

However, Turner admits he did not want to see the England striker - who put United ahead in the 15th minute - sent off.

"I do think he kicked out from where I was, but I think the way game's going, I didn't want him sent off really because it's becoming less and less of a physical game and I think we need to keep some of that in the game for the enjoyment of the fans," he told Sky Sports 1.

"I think it's nice to have a bit of that going on."

Rooney is such a big baby kicking off and having a tantrum because Mutch out played him

Moyes On Rooney: "The boy runs across his path and a yellow card was sufficient. That was not a lash out in any way sort of tackle. It was about feeling hard done by the boy running across his path."

Ridiculous thing to say.

The man is clueless

Rooney did a great job man marking the ref today.

"Wasn't a lash out?"

He kicked him, did he not?!

So if Mutch had got up and lamped Shrek out, could we have said... "Nah, he didn't lash out. Rooney got in the way of his fist"...?

Rooney was in the refs ear all game, reminded me of Nolan.

Was a red for sure.

Medel could have gone as well.
