StanBalaban Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Could do with Young passing on some of those 'dark arts' that top players seem to have in their game on to Ollie . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Interesting that he is shown as a full back on the Villa official site (squad list). Im sure he can play out wide ofc, but still interesting that he is noted as a full back specifically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AvfcRigo82 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 I am very interested to see how Ash Young gets on this season back in the PL. Hopefully his experience will grab us a few more points on the board and can help see games out when we're in winning positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted July 6, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 6, 2021 I wonder if there is a known "time limit" on JT before the strikes out into management so they may be looking at Ashley as a future coach? The whole JT thing seems to have worked well for us, Ashley Young is someone who would command respect from anyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRO Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 I suspect signing Ashley Young has 2 objectives: Firstly to hang around the first team, and fill in where his flexibility is required, for a season and to mentor the kids in training. secondly to follow the Path of JT and replace him when he moves on in c 12 months time, to manage a club. I think Ashley will end up on the coaching staff. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is as dedicated and as humble as JT has been, he's definitely intelligent enough to move into coaching and it sounds like an ideal transition for everyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree but I don’t think he will make a position his own as such - I think he’ll pop up as first choice back up across the front 3 or as an attacking full back. If we sent out a team right now I think it would be Grealish, Buendia, Traore behind Watkins but I think Young would be the first option if any of them were missing (ie if Traore was missing the Buendia would play right, Grealish central, Young left; if Buendia was missing then Young/Grealish/Traore etc).

villalad21 Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Guy looks extremely fit in those training photos. What a top pro he is. Really looking forward seeing how good he still is in PL. Can't forget that there is a big difference between Serie A and Premier League in terms of tempo and intensity. It isn't the same thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 There seems to be a belief that Serie A is still in the 90's when BatiGol et Al were around. It's now about high intensity pressing and incredible levels of fitness coupled with high levels of skill and technique. The defensive side will always be there with the Italians. But now the games are quicker than before. Might not be as fast as the Premier League but it's quick. P.S who won the EURO'S playing that way. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
