2024/25 Ashley Young

[Del-boy]

Probably should be rotated at around 65 minutes given his age. No excuse not to with Coleman and Patterson on the bench.

 

[Rehnman]

I’ve just realised that when Howard Kendall was the exact age Ashley Young is now, he’d already won the league, FA Cup and European Cup Winners’ Cup with us as manager, had sold Andy Gray and bought Gary Lineker.

TBH he hasn't been too bad. He is making a show of most of our team performance wise. That sums our dilemma up

Yes but was he 'Dyche fit'?

I think too much alcohol was consumed for anyone to score highly on the Dyche fitness scale back then, but I’m not sure Dyche will score so highly on the Kendall trophy scale, so he’s still in deficit!

 

[Osamabindiesel]

He needs to hold the line better. Almost cost us a goal and almost got caught earlier. I get why he'd need to overcompensate, but he is not catching his man if they get behind.

 

[Kenyon]

I'm starting to flat out love him. don't know if he's that much better or my standards have been driven into the ground

 

[SJB]

MOTM again.

 

[TheBigIguana]

The crossing was absolutely woeful. I don't totally blame him. He's doing what he's supposed to. Maybe just one or two good ones though.

Be careful of any critism...wow ppl wil put you on ignore.

 

[Del-boy]

You know you have issues if Ashley Old isn’t the main problem.

…..fancy bringing Patterson or Coleman on against West Ham’s main threat when holding them 0-0 with 20mins to go. It’s almost suicidal, 70mins of defending at huge risk of being wasted.

So we’re happy for 0-0’s then? What was the excuse for not swapping him against Southampton?

….we’re certainly happy with clean sheets

That would make more sense if Patterson and Coleman were better attacking options, I’m not sure that’s the case though.
