Popular Post Indigo Posted March 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 27, 2023 He really seems like a great egg. Was a fan of him signing back regardless but from stuff like the below, the general experience and class he brings as well as his performances on the pitch that have often been above the expectations when coming in you can truly feel the positive influence he is at the club. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Panto_Villan Posted April 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 1, 2023 I love seeing Ashley Young playing for us. Mostly because he's one of the few players left in the Premiership who is actually older than me. My dreams are still alive! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think only Fabianski and Thiago Silva are older than him in the entire league 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom13 Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 According to Wiki (not sure when it was last updated)...but 157 league apps for us in his first spell...43 in this spell...so he now has 200 league apps for us if Wiki is to be believed. Whether the 200th was today or before today, depends when Wiki was last updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Give him another year and keep him around the squad. He is vital to have around for his experience, mentality, preparation, fitness and his absolute shithousing and trolling of the opposition. Still playing well too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I recently said he should be considered a club legend and I love him. But I will not apologise to David O’Leary so I will let Young off.

KMitch Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 His on the pitch intelligence and decision making are his best attributes now and make up for a lot of what he's starting to lack physically. He does a fantastic job slowing down the game when we need him to or shithousing the opposition when we need to waste time to see the game out.

Can you imagine if Jack did the same to us in our first game against Man City after his move? That's how badly Young's dive hurt when it happened... I still don't know if I'd consider him a club legend, but I no longer hate his guts and look at his time at the club fondly. Delph will always be a two-faced snake, though.

What do you mean 'can you imagine'? We don't need to imagine; he did dive against us when we played City.

Getting off-topic slightly, but he got clipped because he wanted to get clipped, that’s what he does to con the ref, leaves the foot in to make sure there is contact. Young did it too tbf.

I'd keep him - he's a tremendous asset off the pitch I suspect, and still not a bad squad player on it either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
