ashley young obviously in the position of shop window

Or being played in his rightful position. Imagine him playing there for Villa with a good attacking full-back behind him???

Like Walker?

ashley young obviously in the position of shop window

He is playing in his best position....ie out wide

I'd say he's put 2m onto his price in that first half hour

Not with year on his contract he hasn't wiki.

[oldtimernow]

don't suppose he's said to Mr Capello, I have to play as a second striker and take all the freekicks, corners etc

more like 'you will play on the wing'

Yes, Boss

[Clark W Griswold]

Yes, Young should be back on the wing for us. It's where he's most effective.

Exactly!!!

So you reckon our manager who has seemingly fallen out with half the squad and doesn't seem too bothered who he upsets lets Ashley Young walk over him.

Doesn't seem very likely does it. Could it be that he likes Young paying where he picks him? That he thinks he's got others who can play wide but nobody who can do what Ash does in the system he wants us to pay?

Me and you should be co-managers. ;-)

[oldtimernow]

perhaps GH desire to keep him at the club has coloured/ clouded his judgement in all things Ashley?

and AY has taken advantage of the fact that no matter how he plays he will still play the way he wants to and where he wants to.

Gabby is a far better second striker in my mind.

Young on the right, Downing on the left(if we must), Bent up front with Gabby

Chris.........Ash has done nothing for weeks im afraid.....

[cdbearsfan]

On the contrary, he's been excellent in the last 43 minutes.

[Can Gana Be Bettered!?!?]

It'd be interesting to see if MON would have moved him back out to the wing by now. Wasn't it the pre-season friendlies where Ash was tried in that position?

lol.......very good , oh and where is he playing out on the wing

He didn't do much last week I agree but was good against Backburn and Bolton. That's a different point though, it's the idea that he s forcing Houlier to play him in the middle that I'm disputing, it just doesn't stand up to scrutiny.

[oldtimernow]

could someone remind me how many goals AY has scored in open play as the second striker please?
