Like Coleman's been saying, Beye's played encouragingly well so far. Maybe we could get a decent year out of him yet.
My main problem so far has been that Ash has not been behind Carew, but in fact the two have played alongside each other, which frankly suits nobody. Ash can't create anything, he's not aiding the midfield to keep the ball (frankly he should be part of the midfield) and defensively it's a problem because, by the team Valencia reach the halfway line they're goal side of Ash, meaning one of Petrov or NRC gets dragged out of position. It's like a stereotype of the problems of 4-4-2.
