2023/24 Ashley Young

[knowing your history]

Of course, I had forgotten about that. I know it's not been much as Keane has just had a few mins here and there most of this season.

In a way it was good that match happened as Dyche had no option but to start Branthwaite in the next game.

You get the feeling even a few more 1-0 defeats and Keane would've still been in the team going into October.

With Young off to the Euros to do some punditry for Talksport I think his contract extension will probably be announced next week.

Will divide opinion but I don't think he's terrible backup for FB. Just don't get into a situation where he's starting key home games in the front 3 as that is ludicrous given his age.

 

[RomanReigns]

he gets a lot of stick for making mistakes but at least when he does make a mistake it isn't in a champions league final

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

No updates on his new contract, this pleases me.

Club waiting to drop the bombshell either June 30 or some time start of August once it's become clear that no other club wants him and we're too broke to bring anybody better in.

Happy Fathers Day Ash!

And Happy Fathers day to your lad as well who I'm sure is old enough to be a dar himself...

I heard they all chipped in to buy him a Zimmer frame

 

[TimHowardsBeardJuice]

Seems like an okay guy but he’s just not able to compete as a PL fullback. The demands of the position are too much for him.

He seem d to do a little better the few times he played as a winger/wingback. Not well enough for me to want me back.

Just said on TalkSport 'almost there' on his new contract.

 

[banno]

Been a good back up I say. Prefer him not to be full back though.

TBF, he probably says the same thing every night when he tries to climb out of the bathtub.

At his age, he's got to be extra careful mate.

Just ironing out the pay rise

That's probably spot on.

Well, I guess now we know where the windfall from Coleman's pay cut is going.

 

[blueblue]

I expect that he , like Coleman, has taken a pay cut to extend his contract.
There won't be that many opportunities for him to play premiership football at his age.

 

[BluePaul86]

2 year deal.
