Whatever you think about 'Old Ashley' he's a complete professional who has never given us less than maximum effort. Compare and contrast with Delph, who came here with a big time Charlie attitude and felt he was doing us a favour. Of course Young should never have played the amount of games for us that he did, given his age and his loss of pace, but, that was down to the club's failings not Young's.
It was time for him to go and I'm glad he hasn't been given an extension, but, I can't help but admire his attitude and effort.
