Worst that I can remember in over 30 years of supporting the club.Antonio Valencia and Ashley Young as captains for Manchester United. Baffling.
Young tries his best but the way the club keeps rewarding mediocrity is nuts. He epitomizes that sadlyThis thread is unfair tbh though Young does deserve some criticism. He was quite good when intially purchased and played in his right position which is as an attacking midfielder not wingback or centre back. He didn't ask to be captain, probably lack of alternatives. He was decent last season at left-back with Shaw still coming back to form and no other real options and has been an OK servant. Declined massively after Fergie retired and probably should have been moved on 2 or 3 seasons ago but you could say that about 4 or 5 in this squad.
His extension was a mistake I agree but you'll probably see Dalot start next season or maybe Tuanzebe back from loan. I bet you none of the other top 6 clubs would have offered him a deal if we'd allowed him to walk.Young tries his best but the way the club keeps rewarding mediocrity is nuts.

Couldn't agree more. Everything about him just angers me, I was almost glad when he got the red.I can’t remember disliking watching a player play for us so much.
His face. His kicking technique. The way he runs like a crab would walk. The fact he’s absolutely fecking hoching.
We were better when down to ten and that isn’t exaggeration.

Too fecking right. The wingers for Villa and Wigan are the wing backs for Manchester United, in their mid 30's.Worst that I can remember in over 30 years of supporting the club.
It’s utterly pathetic mate.Too fecking right. The wingers for Villa and Wigan are the wing backs for Manchester United, in their mid 30's.
I thought he was good the first 2 seasons after his move from Villa, the goals against Arsenal, good crosses, pace and I thought he performed well. After Fergie retired his form collapsed. No consistency in the quality of delivery, he seemed to lose that spark. I don't think anyone can argue he showed decent form last season at left-back. To the point that he ended up starting for England at the WC all the way to the semi-final.Ashley Young was never consistently good for United.
Our left side went from Giggs to Ronaldo to Young and that tells you everything you need to know about where we are at the moment.
I would go further, it's a sign of utter failure from the club. You'll have to excuse me, there is someone in another thread getting cheeky because I said half our squad is Everton quality, he doesn't understand the difference between players and squad.It’s utterly pathetic mate.
Totally agree I thought after Valencia we couldn’t get a worse captain but we managed it , problem we don’t have a single leader at the club not one of them fit to be captainAntonio Valencia and Ashley Young as captains for Manchester United. Baffling.
