However, the Dutchman believes the FA's decision to also hand a three-match suspension to Huth is an admission United should have been awarded a penalty for the incident. "We have not appealed because, like I said already, the reaction of Fellaini is like a human being," he told reporters ahead of Saturday's contest against struggling Norwich City. "When the FA gives Huth a suspension of three matches then they admit it was a penalty, I have said that also after the match. "For us it is very disappointing that the referee was not seeing that fact. I think, I still believe that Fellaini makes a reaction like a human being but he has to control himself, that is true. "But when you grab somebody by his hair, always this situation shall exist.</blockquote>
