2024/25 Ashley Young

[Ged G]

He comes on we concede 2 goals

Coincidence?

Yes

 

[Ged G]

Both are good for another year if necessary



Lets be clear he's getting game time because he's the best back up full back we have. It really is that simple.

Love it when people tell it as it us, when they see it clearly. Ta mate

 

[Ged G]

Came on too early, I'm sure it was forced like but still, ideally he is just a bit of nous with 10 mins to go.

Our subs came on too late actually.

 

[MikeH72]

Only him? What about all the others?

Not really no. He is the only 40 year old who literally can’t run that’s in the squad.

I'm sure I have seen him running...
Including being the first to react, by running to the rebound for the "penalty"

Delusional.

 

[BlueInNZ]

Delusional.

No, he's not. If you'd watched the game you'd see it really did happen.

 

[Moomin]

I'd keep him for next season.

But, not as a player. Have him as a coach. Multiple winner of trophies in different countries who kept playing in the top divisions till he was 40.

Good inspiration for the youth players.

 

[Timbucktoo]

What?? Exaggerating the contact was exactly the reason why he didn’t get it?!?!

The way he fell was like he had been tripped and not being held back by having his shirt pulled. We`d probably have missed the penalty anyway.

 

[Marius57]

He put a peach of a cross on Beto's head and should have been awarded a penalty kick.

Also conceded the free kick for their second when he got done once again and was wrong side of the player.

He is good for 10 mins at the end of a game. More than that and his legs don’t have it.

 

[MikeH72]

No, he's not. If you'd watched the game you'd see it really did happen.

I watched the game and saw that we looked like we had 10 men from pretty much the second he came on. Clearly you watched something else.

It’s pathetic and embarrassing that we have a 40 year old playing Premier League football.

You're right. Because our recruitment of full backs in recent years has left us so exposed. But continually baiting Young when he's been decent this season is pathetic

I'm talking about Young mate. Our right hand side was significantly weakened when he replaced Lindstrom. Now of you think Alcaraz and Tim should have came on earlier then I won't dispute that.

 

[NathDogg]

Did well for the pen which we should have got, absolute stonewaller.

Was crap before that and our game plan was done as soon as he come on. He’s finished, can’t run and gets roasted and run past with ease now.

I know we are bare bones atm, but I’d have much preferred Dixon or sherif coming on instead of young.

We need to start looking to the future, and giving the young lads some minutes.

 

[Walken]

See the boo boys feel safe to attack him again, more weasely behaviour
