Dan Ashworth 2024/2025
- Thread starter davidmichael
- Start date
From the linked article:
"There for the national team, he introduced an element that is seen as one of the key factors of their continued success, even now, and that's the England DNA. A defined way of playing across all age groups."
Hopefully he is not responsible for the defined way of play currently being employed by the English national team.

It isn't, one thing that is remarkable about Southgate's current tenure is how opposite from the England DNA (as outlined by the FA and how it is taught on the coaching licences) he seems to play. Someone like Lee Carsley with the U21's and how fantastic they play regularly is far closer to the ideal than Southgate is.
Interesting to see how many of the ongoing deals such as Zikzee and De Ligt he nixes immediately.
He would almost certainly have already been involved in the discussions internally for those in some capacity.
Bit late but hopefully he’s been bought up to speed during his leave. I hope he can have an impact this window.
Newcastle fans will be even more weird and bitter than they usually are.
So, what does it mean?
Newcastle's theatrics were always about money? And we paid them some number of millions, less than 20, but substantial to help them with PSR? And Ashworth can start as United's technical director as soon as today, spinning deals for us with his left heal?

I can't imagine he has been totally kept out of the picture by united.
He'll have been (at the very least) kept in the loop with everything.
I hope we do a big budget announcement video of him playing piano in his garden
He'll be brought up to speed in the daily stand up
You only have to watch every England age group under the first team to see, which is the odd one out
Obviously zero and he doesn't actually deal directly in transfers anyway
So we're discriminating against the disabled?
na standup is for discussing blockers. You can’t have kt sessions there mate.
Not in my company it doesn't. 15 minutes usually becomes an hour.
Most important signing of the summer. Finally the A-Team is up and running!
There goes our budget. Newcastle's FFP woes and strangely unbalanced side with some good players fielded next to some average at best happened under his watch.
Glass half empty unless Chris Smalling is holding it?
geez sounds like a nightmare
So does he start immediately? Berrada starts today as well right? Officially that is.
Think it's the 13th he starts
Good. It would be terrible to be without a DOF for two transfer windows, given what we need to do.
Oh dear. Are the Southgate links actually real
12 Days for Berrada to join.
Than we feast( or Not)

This is beautiful, Jim has exploited Newcastle's PSR woes and likely got Ashworth relatively cheap in the end.
Newcastle fans were giving it the big 'un that we wouldn't get him until the end of 2025 or something.

The only club to pay a fee for a DOF well done.
All clubs pay a fee for people in these top positions. Newcastle paid a couple of million for Ashworth from Brighton.
Wrong.
Newcastle paid compensation to Brighton to get him, self hate is not a good thing
Did we need another Ashworth thread?
How much did you end up paying for him?
Smile, this is brilliant news
35m, but we’re selling them one of our assistant kit washers for 27m next week.
Nice! That announcement came out of nowhere really. It just goes to show that we really are working away on things behind the scenes and not briefing or leaking all the little details. I’d imagine we’ve a few Ashworth approved transfers that are advanced now too. Refreshing!
What squad number is he getting?
Is this some kind of preventive negativity?
