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.

    Kompany limping off. Lescott on.

    4pt hit for Enrique/Johnson or play Taiwo instead?

        Agreed. Taiwo's been sh*t - makes Traore look like an accomplished defender 🙁

    It looks like a few days out, but that's quick guessing.

    Kompany out is bad for Richards owners too as much less chance of a CS.

      But with Zab and Komps out he is guaranteed to start, as if Kolo plays RB then Savic will be central defence which is dodgy.
      Richards, Lescott, Toure, Clichy

      That's still not a bad back 4 to have 😉

    Well if Savic plays city's CS chances look much reduced for a while, glad I don't have Komps 😉

    But it does mean that keeping Richards would've been a sensible move 😛

    Well I don't get it really, what I have done to the fantasy gods recently. I have tones of injuries at the back this year. Again, Dawson and Komp out. Can't believe it, I will analyze the whole team can't be true really, I have 4 injured/ doubtful/ out of favor defenders in average whole season. Arhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh............ P.S. Beware all Skrtel owners he is on my watch list 🙁
