Manchester United are currently receiving plenty of stick on social media for counting the Community Shield as one of the ‘three’ trophies they won this season under Jose Mourinho.Moments before Wayne Rooney lifted the Europa League trophy on Wednesday night, Mourinho told his players all to hold up three fingers - one for every trophy won this season.However, this has led to much derision on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. It seems many fans of rival clubs - and many neutrals, for that matter - don’t regard the Community Shield as a proper trophy.The Red Devils lifted the Community Shield in August after beating Leicester City at Wembley Stadium.They then returned to Wembley six months later and beat Southampton to win the EFL Cup. And now they’ve completed their own unique ‘treble’. Not as impressive as their iconic treble from 1999 but a treble nevertheless.
