2023/24 Ashley Young

[Goat]

I expect that he , like Coleman, has taken a pay cut to extend his contract.
There won't be that many opportunities for him to play premiership football at his age.

I doubt either have taken a pay cut.

 

[blueblue]

I doubt either have taken a pay cut.

I think both may have and that would explain why getting these contracts signed is taking longer , at least I hope they have.

Neither player is in the strongest bargaining position.

And we are?

We are offering a 38 year old and a 35 year old a new contract, that doesnt scream position of power to me.

Anyway, neither will be on huge money and it does honestly look like both help off and on the pitch, so it will probably be money well spent.

But when they’re on goat they do look lost and haven’t a clue when better players/
Jogging players go at them

AH is a liability

 

[HTCHERO]

Terrible giving this fella another year but Everton is the joke that keeps on giving.

 

[DanEFC92]

Has the new contract been confirmed

 

[Cels]

We have to make sure we keep Ashley Young at the club; you can't put a price on experience, so come on Everton don't let this opportunity slip away.

Have you seen him play?
Experience or not, he was at fault for a lot of goals last season

 

[Drago]

He was awful for parts of last season, but if we sign other players with the idea of getting them in the first team, and keep Young around to fill out the squad a bit, then I don't mind it.

Line cast. Fish caught.

Agreed mate,

Personally I’d be asking for Trippier in the DCL deal and looking at Pepe to replace Branthwaite should he be sold.

Back four age of 149 would see us massively push on imo.

No news is good news for me on this one. Coleman’s was wrapped up pretty quickly so the fact this one is dragging on is definitely cause of optimism that things haven’t gone smoothly.

I keep thinking if we don't post any updates on it, Thelwell (who I reckon is on here and gets his transfer targets from here) he'll forget to offer Ashley a new deal and we can pretend it was all just a bad dream.

He might be having a bit of a midlife crisis moment and thinking he’s still good enough to play for a top club again, could be holding out for a Champions League club to make him an offer.

Let's hope so, Sparta Inter Bratislava United have offered him a 3 year contract
