Ashley Young

Officially the best collection of wingers in the league by a country mile now.
Versatile, young, pacy, skillful, eye for a goal, decent corner / freekick taker. Welcome to United lad. |

Good age, good at set-pieces, and can play on the left. The only con for me is the price we had to pay for him. With only a year left on his contract, I think we've overspent by a good £5-7m. Still,we're strengthening the squad, now onto goalkeeper (De Gea!) and CM

I think he'll be a valuable asset to the team, mainly with his set piece ability. Other than that, I think he'll thrive having Hernandez to play through balls to. To be that consistent in the goals/assists department as he's been for Villa is a good sign and will only improve with us, like we saw with Valencia.

I've been a fan of Young for years, I even remember having a muppet-esque moan about us getting Nani for twice what Young cost back in 2007. So, yeah, I'm quite happy with this signing, but as somebody who has followed the player for quite awhile I feel that as well as insiting on his talent I should warn those who don't know...he's a massive diver, one of the worst in the league.

Shouldv'e really won PFA Player of the Year. It'd be interesting to see how we facilitate Valencia, Nani and Young. |
