Contenders for Signing Ashley Young

[Rip Van We Go Again]

I think Ashley Young is a very good player, on his day and on the wing, and yet I wouldn't be too upset when he leaves.

Curious.

Same here, I was more upset when Milner went.
Just need to try and get a good fee for the filthy bastard.

[abc123cox]

He can go to anyone apart from liverpool or sunderland and of course any derby team.

I really hope he goes 2 man u though

[The Left Side]

I think he'll be at one of the manc clubs next season, but liverpool need wingers so we shall see.

Maybe we're just getting used to losing our best player every summer

Let him go to Man City and we'll have Adam Johnson in exchange.

Or Milner, i'd be happy with either.

Not sure why people think he's as good as playing for Championship contenders. He'll go to Tottenham and get booed a la Barry when we get drawn against them in the 4th round in the League Cup.

[olaftab]

I don't think we will make it to the 4th round next year with Rene in charge. Don't forget next season we have to start a round earlier.

[avfc_1874]

Sell him to Bayern Munich.

[Louzie0]

I would not want ash playing on the wing for anybody else against us next season.

So hopefully whoever buys him plays him elsewhere.

And the tooth fairy and santa as CBs ....whatever

words fail me. I am a humble supporter but I don't understand.
Why do we keep selling our best players to our rivals? 

[Billy Walker]

I find it tough going reading The Times' back pages these days.  Tony Barret and Tony Evans' reporting about Liverpool is beyond nauseating.  I'd guess Ashley will want to be playing Champs League footy next year; if he ends up on Merseyside I'd be surprised.

[TheMitaCopier]

use him to get kyle walker

[brontebilly]

Man United or Chelsea. I reckon Old Trafford though, they have a gaping hole on the left. He has took the piss this season at Villa but a manager like Fergie to keep his ego will check will seem him back to his best I reckon.

Chelsea is an interesting one. Drogba I reckon is definitely off in the summer. Id say they will go back to 433 next season with Torres up top which would suit Young. If he cuts out the diving he is still a player that can go past players and there arent too many of them around.

Spurs is a non runner with Bale and Lennon. Arsenal have too many similar players, always the possibility of City but with Johnson they are probably already covered. Liverpool would be a last resort really.

Another good performance for England will add to his value nicely. Really sad that yet again we are seeing another top player leave, while I had my doubts about whether Barry or Milner would improve leaving Villa, I have no doubts Young despite all his faults this season will improve in a better team with a strong manager.

The way its going he won't be.
