Looked for a thread in here for his performances but couldn't find one.

Was absolutely terrible today with his passing of the ball. Broke up a number of our moves by being able to complete a simple pass. His form is dismal but he still gets games.

I honestly think DDG passes the ball better.

 

[Annihilate Now!]

Yep, was pretty terrible.

And still set up our two goals

 

[Rado_N]

I genuinely have no idea how he's got 90 minutes, it makes no sense.

Nani needs time on the pitch. And Young is dreadful. Truly dreadful.

 

[Randall Flagg]

I often try to stick up for our players, but no defending him today.

Was proper gash, he can do far better but surely he is on the way out

 

[amolbhatia50k]

He and Valencia seem to take turns at being simply woeful.

Awhile back young was doing the odd decent thing while Valencia was simply awful, and now it's the other way round.

 

[Sixpence]

Watching him play gives me diarrhoea.

 

[TheReligion]

I just don't know how he fails to complete simple passes.

He obviously has strengths; very quick with a awesome strike, but his awareness, passing of the ball and his ability to beat a man is beyond shoddy.

 

[Kag]

He needs kicked out, pronto. Annoyingly, he'll most probably still be in the squad come September, while much better footballers will leave.

He was shite.

 

[100]

Valencia is alright when given time and space, Young had that in abundance today and couldn't find a man. My view of him as a footballer has fallen even more since his hoofing versus Arsenal and Olympiakos

 

[Leg-End]

Would be top of my list in the DFS summer sale, his first touch would rival my coffee tables in its shitness.

 

[shaggy]

Atrocious today at everything. Praying we don't start with him and Val against Bayern.

 

[Wittmann45]

Tough game for him. A couple really good moves when West Ham opened up a bit in the second half where Kagawa, Mata and Rooney were really playing well together. Quick passing, good movement, all coming deep to get the ball, and then Young was there on the right, waiting a pass so he could do a useless stepover and either over hit the cross or play a poor pass into the box. A lot of moves broke down when he got the ball

Would have been nice to see someone like Welbeck out there with the other three, or even Nani, although he is so often frustrating as well to watch.

I can see one of them being sold in the summer, but I doubt both. We have so many other priority positions to be refilled.

 

[December_16]

I don't think a half fit Nani would've done any worse than Young today. Why he wasn't given a few minutes is beyond me.

 

[JonDahl]

Thought he was ok today. Think people are just looking for his mistakes because he's been shit all season.

 

[Crackers]

He was absolutely terrible today. Broke up all our counter attacks, provided very little attacking threats other than running, and wasn't good defensively either.

 

[Dobba]

Ashley Young's feet, the place promising counter-attacking moves go to die.

 

[SambaBoy]

He was shocking today. Always thought he would be better from the right but doesn't seem to be the case, couldn't beat his man and broke down far too many moves.

Nani should of got some time, we need to get him in form for Bayern.

 

[Red Pavan]

Why didn't Nani get atleast 10 minutes..

 

[Smores]

Hopefully he's gone in the summer but it nay be difficult to find a willing buyer.

Only reason Val or Young gets games is they offer the much needed pace. Zaha probably deserves his chance next season

 

[Leg-End]

Thought he was ok today. Think people are just looking for his mistakes because he's been shit all season.

He did one good thing today and thats provide the cross for Rooney's 2nd. He was terrible, having a set of eyes and then backing it up with stats is really quite simple.

He spent the entire 2nd half passing the ball to every available West Ham player.

 

[Crackers]

Why didn't Nani get atleast 10 minutes..

Because he lacks the one thing Young has more of, hard work. Young is obviously showning signs of being more fit in training.
Absolutely ridiculous how Nani didn't at least get 10 mins game time.

 

[amolbhatia50k]

The issue with him is that even when he does good things in a game, he's terrible for the rest of it. His generally standard has been so low for us it's amazing. Sometimes he'll do a few good things in a game but his general level is way way too low for a team like united.

 

[DevilRed]

Not convinced and still think we should get rid and have Zaha take his place. Can't possibly be worse.

 

[Robbie Boy]

Lost the ball a-lot and was extremely wateful. He isn't anywhere near good enough for our level.

 

[Gandalf Greyhame]

There were times during this match when I wondered whether he remembered that he was playing for the away side. Forget adding to the team, he spends half his time taking away from it.

 

[LR7]

He was awful when he came on against Olympiakos and today he picked up where he left off on Wednesday. Terrible.

 

[kouroux]

Great assist for the first goal, I could hear him shout to Rooney "Hit it Wayne !!"

 

[bosnian_red]

Everything seemed to fall apart with him. Great play all around and then when he got the ball it was usually a bit shit. Good squad player to have I guess but we've got enough of them. Hopefully he leaves and kagawa stays because today kagawa showed he's got what it takes to be a key player to this side.

 

[TheReligion]

I can see the argument for Valencia in that he is very strong and offers good defensive work as part of his game, even if his form has plummeted.

I see no genuine argument for Young ahead of any of our other wingers and that includes the likes of Zaha.

 

[olesmyhero]

Because he lacks the one thing Young has more of, hard work. Young is obviously showning signs of being more fit in training.

Perceived hard work. I don't think Young works harder than Nani.

 

[amolbhatia50k]

Not convinced and still think we should get rid and have Zaha take his place. Can't possibly be worse.

Zaha needs to sort his work rate and attitude first. But young really does need to go. Would be incredible if Kagawa goes and Valencia or young stay. Sadly I can see it happening.

 

[NotoriousISSY]

Waste of space now. He can deliver an okay looking ball if played in by someone else but what does he offer?

He can't beat a man. He rarely shoots. He might not be adventurous but he's hardly a defensive cover. His passing is illogical rather than safe and he's neither strong nor particularly quick.

Hope that's his sole performance for us for a while because he has no place against City and Villa should be used as the tune up for Bayern when he surely doesn't play.

 

[beergod]

His brainless play just doesn't fit in with our forward players. Same goes for Valencia.

 

[Ole's_toe_poke]

Does he get credited with the assist for Rooney's first.

 

[JonDahl]

He did one good thing today and thats provide the cross for Rooney's 2nd. He was terrible, having a set of eyes and then backing it up with stats is really quite simple.

He spent the entire 2nd half passing the ball to every available West Ham player.

Back up your 2nd sentence with his pass completion of 30 out of 37.

 

[wr8_utd]

Why on earth didn't Nani come on for him?

 

[NotoriousISSY]

Does he get credited with the assist for Rooney's first.

Unbelievably yes. It's a fecking clearance too.

 

[Ludens the Red]

I don't like Young but I wouldn't rank that as one of his worse performance, he was rubbish but not terrible, which is a significant upgrade from his cameo in midweek.

 

[FreakyJim]

At least he did help out defensively. That's something, right?
