2023/24 Ashley Young

Because Patterson almost gave away a pen on Diaz and then got rinsed by him for their pen

And yet. surprisingly enough, he wasn't walked past by anyone, he could keep up with play and didn't have the stupidity and desperation to get himself sent off with nearly an hour of the game left to play. I'm no fan of Patterson, but, he is currently streets ahead of Young. Young is finished at this level, it's obvious every time he plays. Week after week Young costs us and yet he starts again the week after.

38 and clearly doesn't learn does he, he's been booked early on in 2 or 3 games this season against worse sides before today. Shouldn't be playing and shouldn't have signed him in the first place.

He’s diving in when he’s on a yellow cos he can’t hack the pace of the game. Let’s try and develop Patterson - blocking his way with a 38 year old whose legs have gone is detrimental to us

Agreed. The refs inconsistency today doesn't change the fact Young deserved both his yellows. What was he thinking for the 2nd? Felt like the challenge of a player who couldn't accept getting done like that.

GET OUT THE CLUB

Take Keane with you just release them both. Wasting oxygen at finch farm both of them.

Yes, oxygen very famously only available to breathe in limited supply throughout the world in a very precise location in the North west of England... with a woman.

As soon as he was booked early in the match, yet again, we all knew what was going to happen. He's walked the tightrope too many times, he was always going to fall off eventually and it was always going to be at the pit.

 

[Clarky cat]

Very stupid second tackle. Clear yellow. Showed him the ouside but not quick enough to get there. And why does he seem to get a yellow card every game within the first 10 mins? Should be cover, not first choice.

He’s 38 years old and the opponent he comes up against is almost always an elite tuned athlete, primed at 100% fitness and pace during those first minutes. He shouldn’t be starting games at this level, at full back, ever.

 

[Bez2k2k]

Young should have been brought to cover and to help Patterson improve. He should not be starting games. He gives a yellow card foul away in every game within the first 20 minutes. I would target him as a manager playing us.

 

[Mase]

We need to play and grow Patterson. I understand why we think we need young’s experience, but not on the pitch. We need his experience in training and off field

 

[Osamabindiesel]

I am glad that he got a red card in a game we were probably going to lose anyways. A blessing in disguise. Our fullbacks are costing us every time

 

[The binman chronicles]

Well he is young and bound to make rookie errors, hopefully in another 10 years he'll have the experience not to make such stupid mistakes....

Im assuming you didnt watch the game and a red told you this?

Never happened.
