He was excellent for Sheffield United too by all accounts (hence Spuds signing him) so he's been performing for a while. I'd think he'll be the eventual long-term RB for England if he continues his development, having said that, I think perhaps I'm getting ahead of myself slightly!

Does anyone know how long luke young has left on his contract?

Signed a three year deal I think, so the summer.

Seems to have disappeared off the face of the planet lately. Still injured? I don't recall Hotlips speaking about his attitude along with Warncock and Beye.

I agree he will be the long term England right back but I think sooner rather than later, Johnson has struggled for England and a good debut for walker on weds night would do him no harm.

The kid Kelly @ Liverpool is very good too and I can see them battling it out for the England right back berth in the very near future

Aston Villa full-back Luke Young has seen a specialist in London to try to solve his ongoing knee problem.

The 31-year-old has not played since 6 December and manager Gerard Houllier is keen to get to the bottom of the issue.

"He trains and doesn't feel anything and then at training the following day he feels something," said Houllier. "Obviously we need to sort that out.

"I played him regularly every game until the Liverpool game and then he got injured and never came back."

Young has been dogged by injury setbacks this season, with the knee issue following hip and ankle troubles, and has been restricted to appearances in only 14 of Villa's 25 league games this season.

Last month Villa signed Tottenham defender Kyle Walker on loan until the end of the season as cover for the England international.

Houllier did not put a time frame on Young's recovery, adding: "Luke saw a specialist yesterday [Wednesday] in London, so it will depend what the results are."

I think I saw on the website luke was going to a specialist because he is still feeling pain and they haven't really found the problem as yet. Houllier was asked about him this week.

You beat me to it spangley!
