Monitor – Ashley Young

8 March 2012 450 comments

Ashley Young’s brace at White Hart Lane has sparked a renewed interest in the Man United winger, fuelled by a slew of obliging fixtures in the coming weeks. Fantasy managers are flocking back to the former Villa man, hoping he can replicate his match winning feat against Spurs and re-establish himself as a top level Fantasy talent, having suffered a string of frustrating injuries this term.

Using the Opta data and our own ICT Index scores, this latest Members article takes time out to run the rule over Young’s season so far, analysing his recent performances and comparing him to team-mates Nani and Antonio Valencia to assess whether he can repay the current surge of investment.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Would you guys play Ba - Arsenal (A), or BAE - Everton (A)?

    Thank you!

      I sold Ba because I'd have benched him this week. I'm playing my Arsenal defender as I see Newcastle getting battered. That said, I'd play Ba out of those two as Everton usually step it up against the top teams at home.

      Tough one. I'd probably go BAE but this is something I could easily change my mind over a thousand times before the deadline would I have to make that choice.

          The Fulham FC website, summing up Martin Jol's press conference, says: "Jol will be without Stephen Kelly for Saturday's trip to the Midlands and fellow defender Aaron Hughes is a serious doubt after picking up a calf injury during training on Thursday."

      Pretty nailed on as far as it goes for being a united player, lindegaard is nearing a return but I think Fergie will want to stick with De Gea in the PL atleast and Evans is playing so well he couldnt really get dropped, I think Ferdinand is more of a rotation risk

    Krul, Mignolet
    Skrtel, Caulker, Evans, Simpson, Shotton
    Bale, Dempsey, Silva, Sigurdsson, McClean
    RvP, Ba, Rooney

    Is my team for this week, no hits. Quite happy with it tbh as it's very similar to a lot of WC team. The 2 goalkeepers still rotate brilliant until GW31 (where i'll use my WC) and the only weak link in my defence is Shotton which matters very little as i can use transfers sorting my defence out every week leading up to using my wildcard.

      I have a similar problem but with Santon and Caulker. You should go with Raylor for his attacking potential. I think i'm going for Caulker.

          Yep, but i can see city putting 6 past Vorm. Both are bad choices, it's just damage control. It would feel weird for me to play Santon if i captain RVP, but i might have to. Swansea's defensive record hasn't been great recently.

      I would have Maradona, Pele, Best, Eusebio all way ahead of Messi.

      He doesn't even come close to those 4 in my opinion. They were seriously different class. Der Kaiser and Cruyff probably ahead of him too.

      When he single handedly takes over a world cup like Maradona and Pele and how Eusebio would have in 1966 if he hadn't been kicked black and blue with no protection from the refs then he can enter the G.O.A.T discussion.
